Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Nikon ML-L3 Wireless Remote Control
Customer Review: The $20 Single Button Remote
Summary: 4 Stars
This IR remote will allow your Nikon camera to take pictures without having you run back and forth from camera to subjects, making multiple group photos with you among the group quite a bit more manageable. Also very helpful if you enjoy nightshots and need the shutter to stay open on the "Bulb" setting: press once to open the shutter, press again to close. Great for light painting and such where you don't want to sit at your camera holding down the shutter button. It comes with a small pouch you can attach to the camera strap to hold it while it isn't being used.
Now this really doesn't only apply to Nikon, a bunch of companies do this but that still doesn't make it a good thing, and consumers suffer for it. This product is of good quality and does exactly as advertised. If you buy it you will not be disappointed. However, I can buy a multimedia remote programmable for 300 different televisions and dvd players for $10, while this remote has only one button, works for only one brand of camera. Its MSRP is $40, I paid $20 (what great savings!) and it is a quality product that will last. But it's not worth $20. It cost well under half a dollar to make and has only one purpose in mind: flash an invisible light with a specific pattern so your camera takes a picture. And if I didn't want to spend $20 on it the only other option would be to go to the Chinese market for a less than good quality knockoff.
Instead of making overpriced accessories that do just one small (albeit helpful) thing, why not make something really worth buying. With less than $5 worth of parts, enthusiasts are making these same remotes at home with intervalometer features built right in. That means every x amount of seconds or minutes it sends a command so the camera takes a picture, allowing stunning time lapses to be a piece of cake. With Nikon's resources, this kind of device would be worth owning, and it would be something I would spend $40 on. In order to do this though, there must be a shift in thinking, away from the old idea of making a quality product with overpriced accessories to a quality product with quality accessories.
I'm happy with my purchase, and I obviously rated it well. I just hope the future brings some smashing accessories at sensible prices.
