Unfortunately helping a The instructions no farther. Firstly, the text is written so small that some people may have difficulty in reading, on the other hand, the language and the content of the manual is very cryptic. When it comes to the activation of the remote control to the camera, it is even - at least as regards the K-7 - wrong. My tip therefore: Let the manual where it is from the very beginning; in cardboard packaging.
To use the remote control with the K-7, you first need to press the self-timer button, then select the recording mode "remote"; that's it. Now work the knob for the zoom function and the trigger. I recommend, since the mirror, the camera takes in a trip to vibrate properly, when using the Fernbbedienung either the mirror lock-up, or just to use the Live View mode; so you will be seriously diminished the camera shake when releasing and the image is sharper.
For self-portraits, the small remote control disappears in your hand. Because of lousy variables Instructions unfortunately only four stars; because actually should help guide a yes. And do not spend too much money for the original product.
