Remote Surveillance Camera Reviews

This very flexible remote allows the camera to make images with you at the controls or in your absence. It is excellent for remote surveillance.

It works excellent as a surveillance camera for a remote water trough I am using it on. I can set how many pictures maximum i get per day. I have been using the camera for 3 weeks now and it has been trouble free other then a switch on the app turned off for some unknown reason and i wasn’t getting pics sent to my phone for one day until i figured it out. Saves me a lot of time and money driving back and forth to check on it. I would be interested in becoming a dealer for you.

This is exactly what I needed to get my old surveillance camera back up and running. Thanks.

I am using the flex cameras remotely for surveillance at a location that I do not visit that often and it helps me have extra eyes and shows me when activity is taking place. It gives me peace of mind because now I know if the remote location has unwanted visitors. I now have three cameras at the remote location. If many pictures are needed the membership future assists me in getting unlimited photos.

Having read some reviews... about the tight fit at the camera remote socket connection, before connecting to the camera, I simply eased the outer chrome sleeve back and forth a few times until it slid freely. The fit was then snug but did not get stuck and was easy to remove. Otherwise, the cable is soft, flexible and tangle free. It works as well as expected and has proved useful for self-portrait and a way of directing a model and photographing a scene without being stuck behind the camera - an unexpected plus.

I'm using it for concerts, where it improves footage that previously looked more like a surveillance camera!

I almost never give five star reviews but this is absolute must-have I think for any gopro user. This remote keeps you from wondering if your camera is on when it’s mounted on your head, or anywhere you can’t tell if it’s recording. Before this, I would be fishing mindlessly and forgetting if my camera was running or not and I would miss footage. This has made my life so easy and helped my YouTube page tremendously. The same goes for snowboarding. Also, I have never ran into any usage issues whatsoever with the remote.

I read some bad reviews on this device but after using it I have to disagree with most of the negative things I read. This is not a long distance remote, it is not a programmable remote, what it is supposed to do is trigger the shutter when you are somewhere in front of the camera body at a reasonable distance. This it does just fine. I agree it is so small you have to take care where you put it so you don't lose it, but the pouch that comes with it fits right on my camera strap, so problem solved. I love the compact size and raised nub for triggering the shutter. it works great and is very convenient especially for shooting still life, macro etc when you are in front of or beside the camera.

I’ve read on blogs and reviews that you don’t need the remote, it’s a waste of money. I’m just going to say this, that’s bogus! You can monitor the battery life of your GoPro and it has a timer to see how long you have been recording plus your not creating camera shake touching the camera. Those are all important things to me and worth the money spent. Glad I made the purchase.

Hi, With a new camera comes new gizmos to make your pics best ever.I was looking for for a remote to help me in my macro photography and went on the web to good reviews and found it on the B&H site.It was compatible with my Canon 7D Mark II:the reviews and the video helped me a lot to finally buy the Vello one.It is the second product from Vello I buy and satisfied with the price vs quality.Thanks to B&H for having this kind of product. Note:this is my second review of that product following some difficulty with the shipping but finally I received it!
