Any time you have to take a picture of a group, the worst thing in the world is having someone press the shutter release and then run back to the group to barely make it in time. After going through this process yet again on a church retreat last week, I decided to order the FotoTech FTML-L3 remote and give it a try. Suffice it to say, I am pleasantly surprised with how well this remote works.I am not a professional photographer, only a hobbyist. And I am using this remote with a Nikon D5200 DSLR camera. Essentially, the FTML-L3 works exactly like it should. It is my understanding that the remote operates using infrared (IR) light, much like a standard television remote. So you should think about it in those terms. In general, the remote transmitter must be able to "see" the camera in order to work (though I was able to use it in a very short range with an obstruction). With a clear line-of-sight, I was able to get the remote to work at least 10 ft away from the camera. I would guess it is capable of much more than that, but 10 ft is enough for my general purposes.One quick tip: If you are using the D5200 (and I'm assuming other cameras are similar), you MUST change the shutter release mode on the camera to respond to the remote. If you don't, nothing will happen when you press the button on the remote. I have seen a couple of places where customers thought the remote didn't work, but they had simply failed to change the shutter release mode on their cameras. On the D5200, changing this mode is simple. The first (and simplest) method of doing this is to press the "Release Mode" button near the mode dial (it has what looks like three stacked rectangles on it). This will open a menu which will allow you to change the way the camera shutter is released, including two options for using the remote (immediate and delayed release). An alternate method is to go through the Settings Menu ("MENU" button) under the "Shooting Menu" (camera icon) and change the "Release mode" setting. This will present you the same options as the first method.All in all, this product is exactly what I needed. I'm looking forward to the next time I need to take a group photo and no one has to do the dreaded race back to formation.

Works great! Easy to pair to the camera.

Functionality works perfectly, exceeding my expectations!My only downside is no instructions and very difficult to open battery compartment. There is a small printed external note on the box indicating a tiny trigger needing to be depressed before battery drawer can be slid out.( Had to insert a pocket knife tip) almost a 3 hand operation.

I like this shutter release for two reasons: It works on my Nikon D610 and my Nikon 1 J1… at the same time! I just did a maternity shoot with my wife and I had both cameras set up and facing different directions. Once I hit the button, my Nikon D610 triggered right along with my J1. Granted, I was in a small space but it worked that's all that mattered and the setting was a home studio. For the price I'd definitely buy more and recommend this product.Do note that it's not perfect by far but it does work when aimed nicely and in range (short range) but in range regardless. This is no professional trigger so you don't have bells and whistles. This is not branded shutter release goodness but it does the job and that's fine.Pros:- works on J1 (mirror less) & D610 (FX D-SLR)- Can trigger multiple cameras in range at same time- comes with carry cloth and is packable (it counts when you need to fit a bunch of small gadgets somewhere and isn't burdensome…)- inexpensiveCons:- short range- doesn't allow for focusing with press of the button just image capturing- doesn't trigger %100 (however, not even branded triggers do)You be the judge. This is a fairly priced shutter release and to start, it's fine. Seriously, unless you're trying to do on-location shooting where you want a good distance between you and the camera, pay more and get a branded shutter release/trigger. DO NOT try and take this to a wedding shoot or any high end shoot where you need serious reliability. Close quarter triggering, yes. Distance, no. Get it, it's cheap, you won't regret it, use it for walk arounds and macro photography.

Was only able to use it for two photoshoots and then it stopped working, tried with a new battery to no avail. Just a faulty product.

It works perfect

This remote works 40% of the time which is a little annoying but it's nice to have for self portraits. My D3200 has an optional delay with taking the picture so it's super easy to hide or drop in time for it not to show up in the picture.

No issue connecting this to my old slr camera. Less issue than my prior one. Good cost as well.

Buen producto cumple su funcion y se adapta muy bn a la Nikon D7500.

Good price and works well when you stand in front of the camera. Very easy to set up with my Nikon D90.The content was exactly as described in Amazon Internet site. It works perfectly with my Nikon D90. I had one from Nikon a few years back and it looked (with exception of the name written on top) and worked exactly like this one. Let’s hope it serves me as well as the Nikon one.

product is good but very expensive when I bought it..

Pour le prix je n'étais pas bien sûre de mon coup mais j'ai tenté et je n'en suis pas déçue. Elle marche parfaitement bien avec un réglage possible de retardateur histoire de pouvoir pointer la télécommande vers l'appareil photo pour qu'il la reconnaisse et en suite pouvoir la ranger pour qu'elle n'apparaisse pas sur la photo génial! Merci pour ce petit produit bien pratique et si peu cher!!

il top ad Amazon che sorprende sempre di più con consegne a dir poco precise. Il prodotto è esattamente ciò che cercavo, piccolo, semplice, funzionale. Funziona perfettamente con la Nokon d3200, è stato sufficiente eseguire l'accoppiamento dal menu della fotocamera e via ... a scattare!
