What accessories are available to remotely control the E-520?
Two optional remote controllers are available for the E-520: The RM-UC1 Remote Cable Release (item #260237) and the RM-1 Remote Control (item #200597). The RM-UC1 connects to the same USB port on the camera that is used to connect the camera to a computer. The RM-1 is a wireless controller. Both devices remotely trigger the camera’s shutter button, and both can be used for long (BULB) exposures such as night photographs. The camera can be set to release the shutter immediately or two seconds after the shutter button on the remote control is pressed. The response time is set by pressing the Remote Control/Self-Timer/Sequential Shooting button, located on the top of the camera to the left of the viewfinder, and then using the control dial to select the setting. The E-520 can also be remotely controlled from a computer using the bundled USB cable and the Camera Control feature of the optional OLYMPUS Studio application.
