    @jonathanlong724
    there is no bulb mode on the G11, but you can use CHDK to get longer exposures up to 5 mins i reckon it is.

    does it work with all canon cameras?

  3. jonathanlong724 on February 28, 2011 at 5:14 pm

    @charles910 Yes, the remote will work with video.

    Can this remote turn on and off the video recording?

    Can you just have it dangle off the camera, if you want to use the sparkle?

    @kennethFOB

    Not that I’m aware of. You should look into it, though, because I’m not entirely sure.

    is there a shutter lock for the bulb mode?

    Thanks for a fantastic video. What I still don’t know is if I can use the remote I have from my ancient G6 with the G11, or if I should go with a third-party kit like this one?

    Excellent job on the review. Ordered one right after viewing. Thanks

    Check the “more info” for a link to the product.

    Excellent review, thanks.
    Wretched if I missed it, but can you point toward which model this is for the G11?
    I have found the JJC website, but cannot pin down the model of this unit, thanks.

    Wow, Who cares about the logo slapped on it, how about quality and reasonableness.

  13. jonathanlong724 on February 28, 2011 at 11:36 pm

    Haha, this is certainly one of the most useful things about it. Also, for long exposure shots, you can have no camera shake you when you take the picture.

    G11 also has dual face recognition linked to the self-timer. So you can have it focus on one person, and then it doesn’t take the picture until the 2nd person is in the picture.

    Burst shooing, bracketed exposure, etc… is all supported. From what I’ve done so far, I don’t reckon it does anything different than the actual shutter button. And yeah, it works from a long distance and works through walls. That’s the benefit of RF instead of IR.

  15. josephgrovers on March 1, 2011 at 12:07 am

    God, this one does 100 meters of shutter control distance, incredible, i might get this one.

  16. josephgrovers on March 1, 2011 at 12:43 am

    Yeah, i looked a bit more into it, it turns out even those are ripoffs too, i mean, you have to point it at the camera and it only works from what, 16 feet away. This is a wayyyyy better deal, you don’t have to point this at the camera, right? Oh also, does this have burst shooting supported?

  17. josephgrovers on March 1, 2011 at 12:50 am

    So yeah, you have a nice set there, that $20 can really help, i cant wait to get a wireless remote, then at family parties, people would be like “oh ill stand and take the picture for youguys.” then i could just whip out my handy dandy wireless remote and say “oh no, i have this terrible boy right here.” xD

  18. jonathanlong724 on March 1, 2011 at 1:40 am

    Thanks Joseph. I checked on Amazon and the cheapest one that I could find is about twice as expensive. There is one for $20, but it doesn’t have a receiver; it requires that the camera have it built in.

  19. josephgrovers on March 1, 2011 at 2:03 am

    Oh yeah, 5 stars, nice review.

  20. josephgrovers on March 1, 2011 at 2:30 am

    You can get an official canon one for the same price on amazon. But anyway, it really doesnt even matter, if it’s a wireless remote that works, that’s all that matters. But yeah, nice camera, I just got bored today, looked up really excellent canon point and shoots because i got bored of looking at dslr’s and i really noticed the g11. Looked like a really nice camera.
