Hey
I would like to buy a remote shutter for my Canon SX40
What would you recommend?
Hi Leslie,
Thanks for your question about using a remote shutter release on the Canon Powershot SX40/
I'd recommend you use the self-timer instead. I know there are hacks available to try and get the USB port to be used for remote control, but the SX40 was not designed to take a remote.
Thanks,
Bruce
