Works Great
I bought this for macro work but the sensor on my a580 is on the front of the camera. Best application is being able to include yourself in the picture. With all the buttons shown, only the shutter works with the camera, everything else is for TV slideshows. Great gadget but the camera's 2-10 second shutter delay works just as well.

Wireless Remote Commander
I shoot with the a850 and use only Sony lenses and accessories. I bought the wireless commander last wk and wasn't pleased with the shutter button. It won't let you lock your focus first it just instantly takes the shot. When I have my Sony fisheye lens on it won't snap any shot. Not sure why. The bulb setting does work well with this device.

NOT Compatible with a35, despite website's claim
My comments concern the compatibility, but also frustration for being led to believe it worked.
Because the "compatibility" section of the RMT-DSLR1 displayed the a35 as a compatible camera, I purchased it at my local shop. I took time to make it work and engaged in reasonable troubleshooting efforts: e-mailed Sony (Cust. service did not respond to my specific questions, only told me to call a number during certain hours); searched online for solutions; purchased new batteries b/c the instruction sheet warns that the included battery may be dead. I finally spoke to someone at Sony's service department. He politely apologized for the misinformation on the website.
Unfortunately, I spent too much time trying to research it before calling and I may not be able to get to and return it to the camera shop. Compatibility with a wireless remote was a feature I was excited to have and the misinformation represents one of several irksome things that I've experienced related to my recent purchase. (Perhaps I should call the service number for assistance before I purchase another sony product).
Anyone need a remote and batteries that are not compatible with other electronic devices in my home?

Remote used with A230
Very easy to use. Compatable with A230 even though it isn't listed as such. Sony ease of use.
