someone asked for feedback about the generic remote that fits the FZ50 that can be found on eBay-- well, I ordered one that was made by JJC for $20, plus another $20 in s&h from a seller in China and though it took 2 weeks to get it--it works perfectly with my Panasonic Lumix FZ50 digital camera! So if you don't want to shell out twice the amount of money, and don't mind a little wait for delivery, go search eBay for the remote!!!

The Panasonic Lumix cameras don't ship with remote controls. So if you're doing nature or other types of photography where you want as much control over the moment of exposure as possible, you either risk the self-timer or buy this vastly over-priced item. What it boils down to is that if you want a vibration-free exposure at a moment of your choosing (disregarding the inherent delay of the camera) it's the DMW-RSL1 or nothing. At least the product does what it supposed to, even it it is grossly over-priced. I'm sure you could build one yourself for far less, but I haven't been inclined to try to figure out how. Jerry
