      It’s no surprise that when you stand in front of the camera and push the
      button, the remote triggers the shutter. There does seem to be some
      confusion in reviews, both here and elsewhere, as to the remote’s ability
      to focus the lens before triggering the shutter.

      This remote is capable of focusing the lens before triggering the shutter.
      However, it will not focus the lens if the photographer has already
      pushed the shutter release button on the camera half way down to focus
      the image or if you are shooting in Manual mode and have AF-C set as
      the Autofocus mode.

      This means that if you are composing a photograph and push the shutter
      button half way down to focus the image and you then stand in front of
      the camera and push the remote button, the image will not focus
      because you’ve already pushed the camera shutter release button half
      way down to focus. To get the image to focus while you are standing in
      front of the camera, compose the shot but do not push the camera’s
      shutter release button half way down, get in front of the camera and
      then push the button.

      If you own a D70 you simply can’t be without this item. Because Nikon chose not to include a mechanical cable release option (or an electronic one either), it is difficult to shoot at slow shutter speeds, even on a tripod, without getting camera shake affecting your images. You can use the timer, but that doesn’t always work for your shooting situation. With this remote, you get the same basic operation as a cable release as well as a bonus that you can put yourself in front of the lens and use the remote to trip the shutter release. It also works in combination with the self timer. One small concern is that because it’s an IR remote, you must point it at the sensor, which is on the front of the camera. This can be awkward standing behind a tripod, but not seriously. I really enjoy using this product.
