If the auto focus is activated yes but there is no focus option on the remote.

Yes I routinely take photos of birds from inside my house using the remote. I am usually about 25 feet from the subject and it works perfectly.

I'm afraid not. I'm assuming that the remote releases only work for digital cameras.

Not from what I can tell. They only appear to make these for Canon, Nikon, and Panasonic cameras. You might look into a Goja IR remote.

I also had this question before I bought the remote control... B. Babb is right! As long as the lens is set to AF the camera will autofocus when the remote control is used (tried it myself many times). Hope this helps - Stefan

From my experience, yes. The remote works exactly like the shutter release on the camera. Holding the remote trigger down half way focuses the lens. Pressing all the way triggers the shutter. Just be sure the camera is "aimed" at you subject. If you aim it at something beyond or in front of your subject, the subject may be out of focus depending on the aperture size.

If your camera has a multi (av/usb) port, the tripod should plug into your camera. However, i don't know the level of functionality the tripod remote will control the camera in video and still mode, such as: on/off, record start/stop, zoom, photo. i assume it will work those functions in both video and still but am not certain. I think the tripod was designed for a dedicated video camera.

Yes, it works but remember to set the Drive Mode to use one of the three Remote Control settings and Menu item C 3 19. AF with Remote Control to Yes. By doing this the camera will use the wireless remote control and as the button on the remote is pushed you will here the auto-focus work. Also you can use the remote Both in front and in back of the camera. You will see the sensors in the front and back of the camera flashing to let you know it has been set..

Hello.....I bought the remote exclusively for still shooting without intentions to use for videography so your question intrigued me so I plugged it into my Canon EOS T3i and set camera to video and well....sorry to say the answer is no. It doesn't work in video mode with my T3i.

Yes. If the camera shutter speed is NOT set to "bulb" or similar and you lock the remote shutter in the on position, it will perform continuous shooting. However depending on the length of your exposure, a better option might be to use the timers built in delay timer, as longer exposures take more processing time.

? - broad question - may depend on your model. check your users manual. I have D3200 and this remote functions much like the shutter button on my camera - 1/2 press to focus and full for release.

Yes if you can use a remote on your camera then your screen will work also. It will display what your recording or watching

Yes it does and can be triggered by a button on the remote(both video and still pics.)

No, I believe that's a function of the camera body and not the remote itself.

Not that I could find. The wired remote only seems to work to trip the shutter.

Yes. It's nothing more than a USB mass storage device with a camera. It will work like any webcam would, and it will work like any USB storage device would. I wouldn't expect super quality and focus tho.
