Must have Gadget

I'm not one of those huge gadget fans that MUST have the latest and greatest. So with that in mind, when I say you MUST get one of these timer remote controls ... you really should!

One of the greatest features is being able to quickly and easily setup a sequential hands-free photo session. A few taps on the remote and you know that in 20 seconds the camera will start taking a photo every 10 seconds for the next 8 frames (or whatever parameters you set it to). Fun and great way to make sure everyone gets in the family photo!!










"The Manual Timer Remote Control Shutter (C) is an advanced shutter release tool for Canon cameras. The MTR can be used to trigger the camera's shutter, as well as lock the shutter open while in bulb mode. This functionality is useful for long-exposure photographic techniques, such as light painting and star trails. The MTR can also be used as an intervalometer, able to capture groups of images while controlling the delay before the initial exposure, the exposure time, and the time-interval between each exposure. The Remote can control the camera shutter from up to 1 meter away, and has a standby battery life of 2 years."

This link is to the Satechi site for the canon compatible remote ... If you are a Nikon (or other brand) user, you'll have to look around to find the right doohickey that works with your camera. Cheers!
