I don't think I could hold it steady, tilt/turn the monopod as needed, and be zooming with the same hand, in other words. If I was zooming in and out with my left hand on the switch on the left side of the barrel, and holding the remote in the right hand, I wouldn't actually be holding onto the camera with either hand.

Nicodimus, forgive me if this is a goofy idea (never used a monopod) but could you use the zoom on the left side of the barrel, leaving your right hand free to operate the remote? For anything that is jumping around, requiring me to constantly change my level of zoom and re-frame, forget it. I could zoom in with my hand on the camera, and then switch my hand to the remote button, but this would only work for stationary subjects. So, my left hand would be monopodding, and my right hand would have to control both the zoom and the shutter. After thinking about it some more, I'm not sure exactly how I would use a remote release with the P900. You'll have to let me know what you think. One of my grips about the P600 was the timer did not stay set like the SX50, so I welcome the IR remote for the P900 because it stays engaged and does not have to be re-set. I had the remote for the SX50 and yes it was a lot better, and had more functions than Nikon's, used it mostly for taking humming bird pictures. Now about the use of a remote trigger, I see it rather like leaving the camera nearly to a feeder, focused there and then move away and when the target (bird, lizard, butterfly) comes to feed, press the remote HALF WAY and a LED turn green to show me the focus has been acquired and then PAFF!īut you're probably right after all: if it isn't expensive I'll get one, just in case. OK, but they have to reset the self timer all the time to Nikon cameras only to Canon it remains set Glad your liking the new camera and hope your weather and work schedule get better so you can get out and enjoy it. With the P900 you could take a picture of your SX50 from 1K away.

Have to disagree, for me it is very useful, for people who use a tripod occasionally and want to stop any possibility of camera shake it beats having to reset the self timer after every picture. I use the Nikon ML-元 IR remote and it works great.ĭon't want to be fastidious, but up to 5m it's no use in my opinion My Trigmaster radio remote mounted on SX50 goes like up to 1km (I tested it up to 50m). Come back and press the button again and it stops the shot.From my understanding, IR remotes work facing the camera, as in a selfie. Basically, depress the timer 3x to get it ready, press to start the shot and step away. For information regarding using the ML-元 with flash please see the camera's user manual. Nikon recommends using a fully-charged EN-E元 battery or an optional EH-5 AC adapter when using long exposures. At this setting, the shutter opens when the shutter-release button on the ML-元 remote control is pressed (2 seconds after the button is pressed in delayed remote mode) and remains open until the remote-control shutter-release button is pressed a second time (maximum exposure time is 30 minutes). When the ML-元 remote control is used in M mode, users can select '-' as the shutter speed. Long Exposure Shooting The ML-元 supports the bulb exposure camera setting making it a worthwhile accessory for shooting long time exposures during low-light photography sessions, or for unusual daylight effects. The ML-元 supports the bulb exposure camera setting making it a worthwhile accessory for shooting long time exposures for low-light photography or unusual daylight effects. It is recommended for taking pictures of subjects that are difficult to approach, or to minimize vibration for close-ups and time exposure, and it is powered by a CR-2025 3v battery. The remote can work from behind the camera as well, however its range is not as long. The Nikon ML-元 Wireless Remote Control is a wireless shutter release capable of instantly triggering the shutter of select Nikons, without disturbing the camera, up to a distance of approximately 16' (4.87 m) in front of the camera.
