I've thought about that. I'm not familiar with all that is available for
the E-thingies. Most of the IR remotes seem to be made for self-portraits,
where the photographer is in front of the camera. And the release buttons
don't accomodate a mechanical cable release. I was shooting in burst mode,
so I need something to work in that mode as well.
