anyone ever seen a wireless remote that could start and stop for tripod filming with the t2i. looked all over and havent seen any yet.

Are you sure a normal remote wouldn't work for starting and stopping the shutter?

honestly i have no clue, the camera is on order, and im just trying to find if or what kind of remote to order.

Yeah, I don't know either.

Yeah hopefully someone on here does.

I reckon it should. A normal wireless remote can trigger the shutter, so why wouldn't it work for video mode?

You're better of asking on the internet I guess. You'll get a much quicker response.

Try POTN (Photography-on-the.net/forums)

Good forum too, very helpful.

I dont think theres any remotes that work for video. Pressing the shutter on a remote while in video mode will just take a photo

Alright thanks, I emailed canon and they said the rc-6 remote will work. Unfortuantely the range is only 16 ft on it.
