Solid quality with a small price compared to Panasonic DMW-RS1. It is handy for reducing camera shake on super telephoto shots, macro-photography, and bulb exposures. Pressing the shutter button halfway enables auto-focusing; pressing the shutter button all the way down releases the shutter. Lock the button for long exposures or continuous shooting. Fully compatible to: Panasonic DMC-FZ30, DMC-FZ20, DMC-FZ50, DMC-FZ30K, DMC-FZ20K, DMC-FZ50K, DMC-FZ30S, DMC-FZ20S, DMC-FZ50S, LC-1, L1, DIGILUX 2, DIGILUX 3

Great value

Inexpensive and perfectly functional wired remote. I buy two at a time because I am hard on these things and usually end up damaging them before I wear them out (once I let one hang outside my car door and dragged it on the pavement and through mud puddles!) but this would be just as true for the more expensive ones that the camera manufacturer sells. So don't expect it to last forever but at about 1/5 the cost of the name brand unit you can afford to buy several.

  
Pretty decent deal

The remote switch I receved came with a shortish coiled rather than the straight cord pictured. Probably could extend to 32", but you'd probably end up pulling the camera over in the process. The coiled cord is still long enough for my purposes though.

Felt kind of cheap and flimsy at first but I think that's just because it's a lot lighter than I was expecting. Two position switch lets you use it just like the exposure button on the camera.

Seems to work pretty well and haven't had any problems with it yet.

  
Gets the job done

Works fine - you really can't go wrong for the price. I was concerned about the feel of the switch when I pulled it out of the package, but I soon learned how to use it when I attached it to my FZ30. My first trial was a wedding where I set up my tripod and shot photos from the balcony during the ceremony. The remote worked without a hitch and I got some great zoom shots despite being in the back of the church. The minister would not allow flash photos during the ceremony so I had to be rock steady. Without this device, I would have had more than a few blurry photos.

  
MA-D Remote Shutter for Panasonic FZ-50

by V. Kleinfeld ( St. Petersburg, FL USA)

After seeing the price ($65) of the Panasonic remote release on-line, I ordered the MA-D from Satechi. It does exactly what I want and looks to be of high quality.

The ordering process and delivery were without problems.

I won't hesitate to use Satechi in the future.

  
Panasonic FZ-50k remote shutter

by Richard W. Mason ( Cape Cod Massachusetts)

Way less expensive than the Panasonic original. Good quality third party part. Works fine. Excellent delivery time. Arrived well packaged. You will want to think about how long a release cable you want depending on your use. I got it with a shortish cord to use with a tripod just to reduce shake induced by pressing the shuter release when trying to capture peak action in birding shots. This allows me to NOT use the highly effective built in shake reduction system of the FZ-50 which slighty slows the shutter release making it hard to capture the peak in action shots.

  
Quite reasonable

Works fine. Has a "half-in" position, the same as the button on the camera.
