How to get the receiver to respond to the remote? The shutter button on the receiver works, but nothing happens when I push the remote button.

Inside of each device (the remote and the receiver) there are four pins where the batteries are. These four pins can be on and off individually specifying which frequency channel to use. Make sure the pins are exactly the same inside of the remote and inside of the receiver! Thus they get the same frequency channel and can talk to one another. This way you can have your individual frequency channel when there are more photographers around, giving each photographer his own channel so the devices won't interfere with each other. Please tell if it works.

Did you make sure the remote would work with your particular Sony camera? If so, then the next questions is, have you set your camera's drive function to the remote setting? The remote will not activate the camera if the camera is not set to remote. Lastly, the battery that came with the remote could be dead from the factory. Try a fresh battery. Hope this helps.

Can someone help me to reduce the delay or shutter lag between when I press the button and when the picture actually takes? I have a one and a two year old and they only smile at me for a second and I can't seem to snap in time. Thanks

Put the camera in rapid fire, manual focus, out the trigger in bulb... hit it once and the shutter will stay engaged.That might work.

Norman Camera's response is correct. This remote, in conjunction with WR-R10 and (if necessary) WR-A10 works exactly like the shutter release button on the camera. I have used it on Nikon D800 for exposures up to 180+ seconds and it has worked nicely. You just need to keep the release button on the remote depressed. The only downside, if you will, is that you are using battery juice all along while the button is depressed. And that is why I also carry a Mudder Intervalometer such as this ( http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61jF0wTLZHL._SL1000_.jpg ) in my bag.

Did you set your camera to the appropriate setting in order to use the remote. I have a nikon V1 and you have to set the remote to be used in the menu section. Under self timer option. Hope this helps.

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.

Built into the shutter release button is a slider button thingy. You need to set that so that the white dots meet. then it should work.

Return it and buy Nikon's remote. I had the same exact problem with this thing. Only the Nikon brand remote works with the D3200

Mine works fine, I just have to make sure that I point it at the right angle. Double check bateries in remote and clean receiver on remote, if your still finding difficulties contact the seller.

Make sure your camera is in the mode to use the remote. I had a problem as well at first and then realized my camera was not in the mode for remote use.

I did not use any menus. Try this...Turn the camera offAttach the device using the cableImportant: Extend the antennae on the remote (I've had it not work right beside the camera until I pull out the antennae)Do a test with the piece attached to the camera. Hit the button on the front, if it takes a picture you know its connected OK.Then test from the remote.Hope this helps.

When you press the receiver button on the remote, it doesn't turn the remote on or off, or actually change anything. It's the button you have to press before you use the numbered buttons on the lower half of the remote to switch between various sound and speaker features. It helps a lot to find the manual online, because it explains things much more thorougly.

I thought mine didn't work but I realized I had not correctly dialed the camera to remote operation. There is also a setting in the camera that I had properly set but my own inexperience with my camera was the error.

Does it still capture an image? even though it doesn't click? I usually toggle with the zoom or the iso. The AF may not be adjusting correctly as it does for the shutter to actually open. Is there a red display box(es) ? or the shooting mode may not be appropriate....

I have had this Remote attached to a D800 for some time and it works great. If you have it connected to the camera completely screwed in then only thing that you may want to check is that the selected channels on the receiver and the transmitter match exactly. If that's all Ok I would ask for a replacement. It's a great remote control so it is worth getting your problem resolved. Good Luck'

I decided to call Panasonic tech support and ask. Unfortunately, I won't be able to try this myself for a day or so (out of town), but maybe you can give their suggestion a go: She said to hold down the "1" button and the "Enter" button at the same time for at least 10 seconds while pointing at the unit and that should reset the remote. ("Enter" being the round button between the arrows.) I asked what caused it, and she said "nothing you did." Funny. UPDATE: This worked! I now have a working remote. Woo hoo. Now I just have to figure out how to record something.
