[QUOTE="brian313313, post: 93567, member: 11888"] I am new to DSLR photography and can't figure out which remote get. I want a remote control so I can set my camera up and go away so I don't scare wildlife. The 16' range of the Nikon is not far enough. I'd like it to go through walls also. Can someone recommend a remote? I don't want to spend more than I have to but also don't want to buy another remote in a month or two because it doesn't have the right features as I learn more about the camera. I have found two on bhphotovideo.com that seem like possibilities but from reading I can't tell the difference between them. The first is a lot cheaper so I'll get that if they're the same but I'm sure there must be some significant difference. Things like how many channels (I'm sure 99 is plenty), range, etc are close enough to not matter. Something may matter that's either not listed or I'm reading it and don't know what it is. The two are: Vello - FreeWave Wireless Remote Shutter Release for Nikon DC-2 Connection Vello - Wireless ShutterBoss Timer Remote (Nikon DC-2 Connection) I'm not necessarily limited to those though. It's just what I've found that looks like it fits the bill. Thanks! -Brian [/QUOTE]
