You only use it for night shots (keep the hand away from the camera body) or those family shots.

Great little gadget to have in the camera bag. EXCELLENT PRICE.

Easy to use, and works like a charm. Very good price. I haven't tested how far away I can use it, but so far, so good.

For the price, you cannot beat this remote control. It does what it is supposed to do, and it does it fairly well. It is small, light, and can easily be hidden in the hand (you probably won't want to see the RC in any of your shots). I tested it to about 25 feet (its specified limit), and it sent the signal to the camera just fine. Olympus E-520 has a 1 and 2 sec. delay for the remote, and so you don't get an instantaneous shutter release, but the 1 sec. is fine with me, and it is better than the self-timer mode. I believe you will be glad you got this nice little tool.

Some reviewers have said that only the "S" button works to fire the shutter. Actually all the buttons work on my E-520. All the other buttons work in the playback mode. The + and - buttons advance the frames while the W and T buttons scroll through the other playback views and the +/- buttons also work once the W/T buttons have been pressed. If you play with this you will see what I mean. So all in all this is a fully functional remote for my camera and well worth the money.
