CamKix Camera Shutter Remote Control with Bluetooth Wireless Technology – Create Amazing Photos and Videos Hands-Free – Works with Most Smartphones and Tablets (iOS and Android)

ALMOST PERFECT, but not quite. This fantastic little remote shutter switch works exactly as advertised. For selfies, it works from across a large room — up to at least 20 feet. I have not tested at longer distances. For candid shots, it is extremely easy to use, allowing me to focus my attention on the photo cropping in my iPhone’s screen, not having to worry about holding the phone in some special way so as to reach the shutter buttons while avoiding touching the screen or covering the lens. I do some table-top still shots with my iPhone mounted on a tripod while I concentrate on getting the lighting and positioning details just right. The remote is a great help with these situations, because it can be pressed from any position around the set table, and it avoids even the smallest camera movement caused by pressing the shutter button on the phone. The remote will start and stop video recordings, and it will activate burst shots when held down. Its being amazingly inexpensive makes this remote switch just about perfect, but not quite. My only complaint — what kept my rating from being 5 stars — is that the switch click is too loud. I like to shoot candid shots with groups of friends or at family gatherings. The remote allows me to be a little less intrusive with my phone camera pointing — can easily be done with one hand, instead of two — so that people remain more relaxed about the candid shots. I do not attempt to hide that fact that I am shooting, but just my aiming and clicking the camera can cause people to act self-conscious, and the remote switch helps. So what’s my only complaint? Even after I silence my iPhone camera’s shutter sound, the noticeable audible click of the remote switch still draws people’s attention to the photographer. I really wish there were an easy way to turn it off or make it much quieter. Everything else about this remote is near perfect, and I highly recommend it.

Very affordable, easy to use. I thought this device would be appropriate for use with a smartphone affixed to a spotting scope mounted on a tripod for bird photography. It did exactly what I expected. When used, this device eliminates all of the jitters that could occur if done manually, no matter how gentle the touch. On my Android smartphone I could make use of a voice activated shutter release if I desired. Speaking loud enough to the device for a pic could also frighten off wildlife that I or someone else might be trying to get imagery of. I am quite satisfied with its performance. It has given me the ability to obtain some fantastic still and video images of my local hummingbirds.It was a no brainer getting the thing up and running almost immediately. I didn’t have any issues with the size of the unit or the size of its buttons. When used, the different sized button for the different type of device formats seems to be totally logical. You don’t have to look at the thing to use it. It’s a two button gizmo, you use one button or the other. I did notice however that the Os button would zoom in when being used with my Samsung/Android smartphone. I checked it out with Iphone 6,7 and it worked just fine. I did not check to see if the android button would zoom the Iphone camera though. I also checked it with A galaxy 8 and a LG running on android a few or more levels above what my Samsung is operating with. I am using the CamKix blue tooth shutter release on a Samsung Rugby Pro which is operating with Android 4.1.2. I know it’s only supposed to work from 4.2.2 and higher or so it was thought. I’m glad that I lucked out in that regard. Once again I am more than satisfied with this product. I would recommend it to anyone that wants to improve their smartphone/bluetooth camera photography.I tried to put this review on CamKix’s website nothing doing. I guess that’s why there’s only two reviews on their sight too. To bad for CamKix.

Soooo convenient and easy to use. I love this for a lil phot shoot! The only issue is that sometimes the button has to be pointed right at the camera if it’s far. Otherwise it’s perfect

It’s a real page turner. I bought this to turn the pages on forScore on an iPad Pro. There are 2 buttons – iOS and Android. For some reason, the Android button works in forScore, but the iOS button doesn’t. Not a big deal, and for less than $10, who cares. Now I can watch my wife nod when she’s playing the organ and turn the page without being in the way.

Works Great. It connected to my IPhone with no issues or hassle. Took photos and videos. Can’t wait to do more shooting with it outdoors. It has a battery inside and came with an extra one which was handy as well. Insta stacked_4show

Funciona muy bien, fue fácil enlasarlo a mi cel, es cómodo y discreto. Llegó con batería instalada ya listo para usarse. Si lo recomiendoGracias

Value for money product, I have to mention that it’s compatible with iOS and it’s works super fine.

iPhone-works. This works well with my iPhone. I’ve been using it for several months. Still works great seems to have a long battery life. I do turn it off and on if I’m moving positions. Seems to connect readily every time . Has a reasonable range.

So easy to use, simple installation and interface. Easy to install and use, great for group pictures when you want to be in the picture. Set up phone on tripod or stable surface. Great inexpensive gift for a traveler or photographer!
