The forum doesn't resize images and there needs to be a limit set otherwise you will have people posting about twenty 13MB images which get downloaded to everyones PC and then resized.

This single image takes 44 seconds to DL to my PC and it's a mere 14,584 pixels wide.

They have to be front silvered mirrors. Very difficult to handle and clean.

You would be better putting it on ebay sold for parts.

Sell the viewer separately.

It is for slides, but you could use digital and print L & R separately then mount them on a piece of card side by side to fit a card viewer.

This page shows the transparency viewer at the top and the print viewer at the bottom.

The Yonguo RF-602's will work at over 100M or you could set one at 100mm and relay it another 100M.

There are also IR jobbies that will cover over 100M for shutter release. (Acculine).

There's a later version of the Commlites I mentioned with 120M range link

I have some Wein IR gear that will cover over 500M.

Absolutely no need to modify anything or BS about it .

You can set it to stay on in the menu or (I think) sleep after 30 mins.

Trying to decide about ordering these remotes. I already have the Yongnuo RF-602's but these are better, £15.38 from China link

They will fire the camera via the jackplug, but are really for flash.

Get a cheap wireless system. Plenty to choose from.
