AODELAN BR-E1A Wireless Shutter Remote for Canon

This wireless shutter release lets you trigger compatible Canon cameras remotely for hands-free shooting, group photos or long exposures, with an operating range of up to 10 m and simple immediate or 2 second delay release options. It is compact and direction-independent, making it useful on a tripod for minimizing shake when taking stills or starting and stopping video recording.

Key Points

The remote supports still photography with immediate or 2 second delay release and also has a video start/stop function. Operation does not depend on pointing direction, so you can use it from any angle within the stated range. According to the manufacturer, the unit works up to 10 m or about 32.8 ft under usual conditions. Note that the camera must be set to a compatible remote shutter trigger or timer mode in the in-camera drive settings for the remote to function.

Usage Recommendations

Before attempting remote triggering, set the camera drive mode to remote shutter trigger or to a timer mode such as 2 second or 10 second within the camera menu, otherwise the remote will not activate the shutter. For tripod work and long exposures, use the 2 second delay to reduce vibration at the moment of release. If you plan to use zoom control, confirm the PZ-E1 adapter and a compatible power-zoom lens are fitted and functioning, because the adapter is not included with the remote.

Positive Aspects

The device is straightforward to operate and small enough to carry with camera kits, which helps in travel or studio situations. It replaces Canon BR-E1 functionality for users who need a third-party alternative. Consider that environmental factors such as obstacles and radio interference may reduce the effective range in practice.
