Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony RML1AM Remote Commander Shutter Release Cable for Sony Alpha Digital SLR Camera
Customer Review: Very useful despite its price.
Summary: 5 Stars
The Sony RML1AM Remote Commander is surely expensive for what it does, however, there are some things to consider:
If you buy this, is because you need it, not just to keep it in your bag just in case, if you happen to own a A700/A900, you can just get away with the wireless commander that comes with it.
The problem with the wireless commander is that in order to use it, you got to set the camera to detect it, and this causes a HUGE drain of your battery. If it's for a short while, it shouldnt be a problem, but if you're shooting with it for hours, your battery may not last too long.
With this remote commander, there isnt that problem. You can shoot for hours with it and won't affect your battery.
You can lock it down if you're shooting with Bulb, so you dont have to keep your finger pressed on the shutter button, once you unlock it, the shutter closes and your picture is taken.
You can focus with it, pressing it halfway just like you would with the shutter button on the camera.
One great feature of this product it's the length it possess. Usually a remote goes 0.5 meter, 90cms tops, this one goes up to FIVE meters, not 1 or 2, but 5! You won't appreciate this until you got to set the camera at one spot and move away from it but still be able to shoot. This is particularly helpful if you shoot birds or animals or events where you cant be holding the camera yourself.
I agree that this could be priced a bit more fairly (30-40 bucks tops), but if you do but it, it wont let you down.
One free advice: When you use this product, you may accidentally put the button near Lock position, if this happens, the buttons on the camera will stop responding, even if you turn the camera off and on again. To correct this, check the shutter button on the remote or unplug it.
If you really need a remote commander wired to the camera, this is a great option to go. It won't let you down and will do what you expect from it.
