I'm looking for a relatively cheap digital camera that has a remote shutter release. Any suggestions?

There is some nifty software that will allow a good number of Canon cameras to be used with a computer as a remote shutter release. Check out the software: assembla.com/wiki/show/CuteCanonCapture A review of the software: lifehacker.com/5340222/cutecanoncapture-...

The cameras (many of them cheap): * PowerShot A620 * PowerShot S80 * PowerShot S3 IS * PowerShot G7 * PowerShot A640 * PowerShot S5 IS * PowerShot G9 * PowerShot SX100 IS * PowerShot G10 * PowerShot SX110 IS Specifically, the Series S5 IS is under $300 and looks like a nice all-around camera. .

A scanner would be cheaper and produce much, much better results in almost all situations involving documents. Just an idea... I'm guessing you have a good reason (docs are too big, too rare and can't be touched, something like that), so you should definitely look for a camera with a wireless remote or at least one that can use an optional 3rd party remote. Just for example, Canon's venerable PowerShot line of cameras can use a remote.

If you don't feel like shopping around, you can pay $30 and get the Official Canon remote for the camera. It's just an IR transmitter, like the dozen or so you have lying around your house, so if you had a universal remote and the right codes, that'd work too. But you can find third party remotes straight out of the factory from China for $5 on ebay.

NOTE: I am NOT recommending this link/company. My guess is they are fine (I order cheap generic crap from China all the time with no issues ever, so far), but I really have no idea and this is just the first link I found: IR-Wireless-Remote-for-Canon.

Just use the 10 second self-timer. Otherwise you would have to buy a wired or wireless remote cable assuming your camera supports such a connection.

Yes, not many digital cameras support the remote shutter release. And the ones that do are not cheap. Though if you are crafty or handy, I've included a page that tells you how to make your own for a canon.

I bought 2 cheap canon cameras - under $100 over past 3 years that do remote shutter control. Canon has there own software which is ok but there is a third party piece of software that is even better go to this website breezesys.com/PSRemote/features.htm and look for supported canon models. Then go to ebay and buy the cheapest used model.

You can probably get one for $50.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
