Easy to use and well built.

This is a well made product that is easy to use and does what the maker says it does. The instructions are a bit complex and I avoided them except to read the highlights. Assembly is obvious: insert the batteries (4 AAA required, not supplied), insert the receiver in the camera hot shoe and plug the supplied cable into the camera socket for remote control, turn power on for transmitter and receiver by holding their power buttons on for ~2 seconds, and you are ready to go. I was able to trigger the shutter from 100 feet away, enough for me and I did not try any farther. I am acquiring another unit so that I can do stereo photography using my two Canon 5dMIIs remotely triggeredBe sure to select the version that is for your camera manufacturer. I highly recommend this device.

First Impressions' works great/Update

I tested the remote up to 20 ft. from the camera works great without focus, (Must focus first) I tested the hand remote direct plugged into the camera/D500 and also works great without focus. The cable connection the camera body has a screw in collar to secure the cable/connection 'great feature' The remote screens are back lid yellow for night use with an auto off for the back lid light. the remotes have an on/off button and a few extra features, timer, time laps and so forth that I have not tested yet. Hot shoe connection Is good solid fit. I am happy with just the simple use of the wireless remote.

Problem with continuous modes on Nikon D500 - problem solved

I'm using this with a Nikon D500 and haven't tried it in all modes. However, when I set the D500 to continuous slow, I can't get the camera to take less than two pictures no matter how fast I press the remote shutter button, and in continuous fast mode, the minimum is three pictures. In either mode using the camera's shutter button, I have no problem getting just one picture. With the camera in single mode it works as expected -- one picture per shutter button push. This is more a nuisance than a show-stopper, so only one star off. Edit: Thanks to a comment by HRC, I can now shoot in continuous low mode and get just one picture. So 5 stars it is.

Must have....price not bad at all!

Are you kidding me??? I use the 5D MII and it doesn't time lapse but, with this little remote I am actually able to do it no problem with the repeat mode. Will update later if need to for battery consumption and durability test.

Works perfectly

Just received this today. Works wonderfully well so far, just exactly what I wanted for taking images at intervals of the sky (time-lapse) with Canon 5D Mark III. The manual isn't bad, but it does have a LOT of options, so it took some careful reading and finally searched youtube for a video that explained well the differences between Interval, Delay, Long, etc. I just search for the PIXEL TW-283 and easily found a good video!

It works for me..

I just use the basic option, to take pictures of wildlife. For example, having my Canon 60D on a tripod near a bird feeder and taking pictures from the porch. Also have used it to take family group pictures without having to run over to join them before the camera’s internal timer triggers. I have had no problems with short battery life, although that was one of my concerns. A warning, you do have to check the remote control transmitter, because it will turn itself off to save on batteries after ½ hour without use. So if you see something you would like to photograph, make sure that it is on. The receiver on the camera does not turn off after no usage which is what you would want. Someday I may try some of the many other functions, but right now I am extremely pleased with it.

Works on Pentax KP

I bought one of these for my Nikon for the Eclipse this year. One feature I really like is that while running a program you can just press the shutter release to take an immediate photo without interrupting the programmed intervals. I used this during the eclipse to take a photo every 5 minutes for two hours. But during the eclipse (after removing the sun filter and making one exposure adjustment) I just kept pressing the Pixel shutter release button. When the eclipse was over the Pixel resumed its five minute interval for the remainder of the time. I captured stunning pictures, especially the Diamond Ring. Since the eclipse I purchased a Pentax KP and the Pixel was my first choice for a wireless shutter remote. The Pentax KP does not have a IR shutter release and this was the best alternative. Even though I gave it a 5-star rating, which it deserves, the programming is a bit cryptic. The parameters "DELAY, N1, N2, LONG, INTVL, and REPEAT" meaning was not intuitive or well explained in the manual. So I devised a cheat-cheat that looks something like a computer programmer would write: [DELAY] 0 DELAY 0 SECONDS REPEAT [N2] TIMES: 99 REPEAT THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE 99 TIMES REPEAT [N1] TIMES: 99 REPEAT THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE 99 TIMES TRIGGER [LONG] 1 APPLIES 1-SEC TRIGGER TO CAMERA [INTVL] TO NEXT TRIGGER 4M 59S WAIT 4 MINUTES 59 SECONDS (5 MIN TOTAL) DELAY [REPEAT] SECONDS 0 NO FURTHER DELAY, JUST GO BACK TO TRIGGER The above sequence was terminated after the entire eclipse was over.

I use this remote shutter for my astrophotography work and ...

I use this remote shutter for my astrophotography work and the wireless feature works really well. The only caveat is that it won't work from inside my Columbia Omniheat jacket probably because of the reflective material inside the jacket.

Easy to Set Up; Works Like A Charm

Unlike a remote shutter release that I recently purchased and returned to Amazon, this shutter remote worked like a charm. It was well packaged and I had it up and working in just a few minutes. Although I read the instructions, it was probably unnecessary to do so to get it up and running in its basic push-button use for an instant release of the shutter. I kept the instructions though, just so I could refer to them when I want to use the many features that come with it, such as timed shutter release, etc. I would buy this wireless shutter remote again without hesitation.

Well worth the price

For the low price, I don't feel you can beat this remote release. Appears well built and designed. First day using it works fine. Takes 2 each AAA batteries for Tx and Rx, which are suppose to last 400+ hours in standby. Receiver mounts on camera or tripod. 80 meter range, but have not verified that yet
