What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Pros: Solid little remote
Cheap as borscht!
Ships with battery guard 
Works out of the package
Better than a cable release
 
Cons: It's pretty small, but so is the OEM remote
 
Other Thoughts: Get this if you have an Olympus camera, in fact get two in case you lose one. 
This is a great remote to do HDR photography with because you can step the EV values.
 
Bottomline: If you have an Olympus camera and you haven't bought one of these yet you're just plain silly. Get one today.
It'll help if you also get a tripod, and while you're at it why not a flash?

Overall Rating:

Pros: -Works exactly the same as the Olympus remote
-Can activate bulb mode
-Works with Olympus dSLRs
 
Cons: -Somewhat cheap build quality
-No manual to speak of
-Very little tactile feedback on buttons
 
Other Thoughts: Great item, works almost exactly like the Olympus remote, in that it can both trip the shutter and activate Bulb Mode on Olympus dSLRs.  Extremely useful item to have around, especially when using long lenses on a tripod where shutter button vibration can be an issue.
 
Bottomline: Absolutely worthwhile. Works out of the box with Olympus dSLRs.

Overall Rating:

Pros: Costs nothing compared to original Olympus remote. 
The remote is small, fits nicely to pocket or to camera bag.
Build quality is good.
Looks good in my opinion.
 
Cons: There are no instructions in the remote which button does what.
 
Other Thoughts: Works great with my E-400.
The camera can be easily set to remote operation mode, which choices of immeadite shoot or two seconds delay.
 
Bottomline: I don't need the remote often, but this was still work buying. At times it is good to have a remote and this one does the job perfectly well.
 
					

Definetly worth the money

Overall Rating:

Pros: * Works right out of the box (battery even included)
* Controls my E-410 like a charm
* Works well from most angles (I've yet to test its range)
* Retail remote is 25-30$. Do the math.
 
Cons: * Build quality is good but not perfect (the glossy front panel isn't entirely flat)
* Very few buttons, and not all of them even have a function on my camera. Keep in mind this is similar if not identical to the OEM remote from Olympus (what a shame).
* No instructions (except a note on infra-red light being invisible ;))
 
Other Thoughts: If you plan on shooting using a tripod this is a must have! Even the most sturdy tripods combined with a delayed shot mode on your camera will benefit from hands-free shooting.
 
Bottomline: I got 2, for myself and for a friend. At this price it could have one big "Shoot" button and I'd still recommend it :)
