TThe unit on top of the camera blinks continually, doesn't stop at 25. Is the large button on top for taking pics. No explanation found.

I have no idea what this question means. The wireless remote control works fine with my camera.

I am not sure that I know what you are talking about.. rtm? 25? Are you using the the 100M device with the cord connected to your camera? It does not connect to the camera via a hot shoe (flash) connection- it only sits there with mounting screw for stability. The part with the large button is the receiver and needs a cord to connect to the camera. once connected, it can trip the camera. The remote has no hole to connect to - anything. ask more

Big button fires shutter "locally" (no lights). Flashing light on receiver means "ready." little button turns unit on/off. I have had mine stay on for days in my bag. Battery drain does not seem an issue. Remote half press turns lights green (usually forces an autofocus), full press turns them red (shutter release).

It is receiver and blinking light means it is ON and ready. If you press smaller button for 3 or so (i.e. long press) it will turn OFF and light will stop blinking. Yes, large button is shutter and pressing that makes the camera take picture. Big button operates like shutter button on the camera with half press and then full press mechanism. Receiver has to be connected with the provided cable to the camera in order for it to operate.

The led slow blinks red if the unit is turned ON. Green when shutter is fired. The large button is also a shutter button, that functions even if the unit is turned OFF. To turn the wireless off, press and hold the small button for a second or 2, the led will flash rapidly then turn off, (saving the battery)

There are 2 buttons located on the upper outside edges of the cameras that provide 3 settings. 1. IR ON 2. IR OFF ,3. IR AUTO . If not all of the positions work it's just a minor switch defect . Send it back for a replacement. The two buttons on the front are for On/Off and Camera Selection. Hope that helps.

I never had any problems with mine, still works perfectly. On the camera, there is there is switch option, as enter the camers the switch is @ top right hand, you will find a a camera symbol click to switch to your desired option. If it fails you know its faulty.

I got the same one and it has the same problem it will take still shots but not any video.It might be a big in the software or a wire is loose some where in the camera.

Look for a break in the cable somewhere, or a faulty push button switch on the transmitter. If it's focusing the camera, the RF section seems to be working. Does the wired unit fire the shutter when used alone, pushing it's button instead of the one on the transmitter? If so, it's the transmitter unit not getting the fire shutter signal out. Check your signal cables if you can. There are 3; A ground, a focus half press, and a fire shutter full press line. Test them if you know how, or know someone who does. What make/model of camera are you using it on?

I threw away the camera 4 or 5 years ago after one year use. The camera could not be turned on to take photos. It will cost me more to repair. Sorry, I can't help you.

Good morning, Sorry it took so long to respond; I have been on vacation. I hope that your problem was resolved. I tried my unit for the first time yesterday; and the main problem that I had was making sure to push down the button down on the transmitter and hold it there for several seconds in order for it to operate. Also where to place the receiver on the camera hot shoe in order to receive the single; had the receiver facing backwards so that it would operate. Als make sure the batteries are in correctly. Bottom line, you get what you pay for. Good luck and have a great week. Jeff

This could very well be a SD card issue.... I've seen this happen on one of my friend's SLRs when they tried using a older SD card (that is not class 6 or higher).... Even if urs is class 6, it might not be a bad idea to try using a different SD Card, as the one that u mite be using now might be defective..... Good luck.....

Touch menu button, then touch the outer ring where the flash indicator it located. When you have selected the mode the camera mode has an automatic flash. This should fix the problem. Each Mode has different flash modes. If this doesn't work for you then it may need factory service. Hope this helps.

first things first, be sure that it's in auto mode. There's also a manual focus mode. To check all your settings, simply swipe the shutter button up, you'll see the manual setting sliders. Check if the focus slider rests in auto mode. If it is not, slide all the way to your left, and leave it there. If this is not the case, check for the updates. First you gotta be sure that you're running the latest version of both the OS and the camera app. If no updates available, try to uninstall and install the camera app again. If nothing works, could be a hw problem. Let me know how it goes. Cheers.

Thank you very much for your response. I was beginning to think I was the only one with this problem. Your explanation is probably correct. I have had two other digital cameras and neither had this problem. I doubt if much can be done about it...

Thanks very much for the info., Les. I actually returned my camera when even Panasonic tech support couldn't fix the problem, but I later learned it was not a defective camera. I'll be buying it again in the near future as I think it's a great camera, and I'll be saving your message in an attempt to figure it all out. Also, too bad there's no flash button on the camera and that you have to go to the menu to fiddle with it. That's weird! (and too bad it doesn't pop up automatically, like my Sony) THANKS AGAIN!

Haven't had any problems with my unit. Maybe going over the instructions again, making sure you have the correct model for your camera, batteries are good, and making sure cords are fully inserted would help. Also you could look at the reviews to see comments made that may help you.

I had a similar problem. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. You must have your camera set in Timer mode for it to work. Point at the front of the camera where the sensor is. Kind of worthless to be honest.... Luckily it didn't cost much. Probably should have returned it. I bought one for myself & my son. Never of us use it... Timer on my camera works better.

Great query I shall try to help you though I no longer own this unit due to the fact that it had some broken parts that only got worse until it stopped working? I believe you need to hold the upper button down until it progressively blinks and/or beeps/vibrates one level at a time. Alternately, it maybe the lower button?Either way you'll need to experiment by testing the timing option much the same as short and/or long pressing buttons on say a tablet computer.

There is a slide switch on the bottom of the camera housing, it's easy to shut it off. Now when you turn it back on..it MIGHT or MIGHT NOT sync with the base unit.You will have to pull the camera down, walk over to the base..turn the camera on and press the button on top of the base and wait for the blue LED to flash on the camera...then your back in business.
