So, make no mistake, this is a vastly more intelligent product than the cheap copies you may see elsewhere, which are no more than a GPS module in a box!
The included remote cord adds greater convenience and ease of use in a wide variety of shooting situations, including long exposures and close-ups.
The remote also features a lock, which keeps the camera shutter in Long Time Exposure (Bulb) mode.
By using a remote cable you can reduce camera shake, which results in sharper images.
