Question: Does it work with Panasonic G5?
Document: Works fine with my Lumix G5, but you have to plug this in at certain angle to work, not all direction. So trial and error need to be done before you think it's not working! For the price, it's a good remote shutter release.
Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Usually when I need it the item does not function. Panasonic G5. I have a wire less one that uses same port and it works fine.
I am not a professional, and I don't use a shutter release a lot. The price fits my needs on this piece of equipment.Works well on my Panasonic G5 and gets the job done.
Used for movies on my Panasonic Lumix GH1. Does not feel like it is going to break but also does not feel like professional quality. Was not sure if it would work for movies but it does so just fine. For the money it is a great buy. I would give it 5 stars if it had a little better quality feel but I am certainly not complaining - especially for the price!
I have only had this a day so I can't speak about longevity but this is a light weight, simple wired remote for the price!I have a new Panasonic GH3 and pretty much only shoot video with it. I was concerned that this shutter release would not work in video mode but it works great. Push it once and it start recording push it again and recording stops. I attach it to the tripod handle so I can start and stop recording without having to touch the camera.
I recently purchased this item to use with my Panasonic FZ200, and it seems to work as advertised. The two-stage shutter release operates just like the one on the camera itself, i.e., lightly pressing the button first activates the autofocus, then releases the shutter when pressed all the way down.A quick word of caution: the plug requires a fair bit of pressure to seat correctly. When I plugged the unit into my FZ200 for the first time, I could not get it to work.
This doesn't work for my Nikon D3100, as the title said it would. I just returned it, and am awaiting a full refund.
At first I thought this did not work. Turns out the button is just a little loose. Mash it a couple times and it works pretty good from then on. All in all, it was inexpensive and does the job. I haven't had an issue where it did not work when I needed it to.
As remote shutters go, either they work or they don't. This one works.The cable is long enough that I can sit on the floor and work with what I'm photographing and still trip the shutter.The feel of the housing is strong and it seems simply well made.
At first the item did not work, but then I sat down and examined the connection on the camera, and it was not pushed in enough to work. You have to push it in until it is really seated in the socket. No batteries needed, long cord, slight depression does auto focus, hold down more takes pictures. Also, it does bracketing with no problem. Great buy, now I get sharp macros.
Answer: Steve, I do not own a G5 but the remote port looks identical to my GH3.I would be very surprised if the Pixel Wired remote Shuter Release control unit would not work withthe G5.
