I have passed my old Nikon D60 old my nine years Sohnemann and he has a lot of fun experimenting with the camera. What would be more suitable as a remote release ?! After looking in the manual) the camera wa clear - the little thing works. And pretty good. In Manual Focus, it triggers the camera directly, you want to use the auto focus, you have to take 2 seconds of delay in buying, because the device does not have two positions. That is also the reason why I "only" 4 star good forgive not full marks but. By holding the camera takes several shots in succession. Since the whole thing via infrared works must always be with one's own position somewhat eight, but that's not an issue. For the price I expect no HighTech but to play, for macros, long exposures or for group recording where you want to be even it it's all great!
