I'm quite happy with the wireless remote!
Each was about $23 and took about 2 weeks for delivery from Hong Kong.
It even came with a battery.
Open box, separate the receiver that mounts to the camera from the remote.
Insert battery into receiver.
Attach to camera...
Waa Laa.
Done. Operational.

I like it because I can just throw it into my pocket and retrieve it quickly. my wired remote I had to be cautious of the 10 foot cord, hang it on the tripod etc.
One thing I did not do was check how far a distance it will go.
I can check that out at home.
Overall, good investment. I'd recommend it.

One caution: be sure to turn the remote off when not in use.
The battery is not a standard AA or AAA. will need to price out replacements and keep one on hand.
