Digital camera accessories

[arkinv]

Does anyone know of a remote controller that will allow me to operate a Panasonic Digital camera (pv-gs32) from about 5-7 foot away? It can be wireless or it can be hardwired. I have to set the camera up facing the side/rear of my vehicle and still operate it from the front seat. Any ideas?

Sorry,
Can you reply direct to info@arkansas-investigations.com ? Thanks in advance.

Hi there arkinv,

Welcome to the Q&A Board!

The model you list is primarily a camcorder, not a digital camera. Am I correct? Infortunately, we don't deal with camcorders at Digicamhelp.

However, it may be a good idea to call Pansonic directly. In the U.S. their phone number is:  1-800-405-0652

If you're not in the U.S., you can obtain Panasonic worldwide contact info here:

At the Panasonic website, they list a camcorder remote control called MagicWire. According to Panasonic,

"This remote makes it incredibly easy for you to capture low-angle shots, high-angle shots - or even fixed-position tripod shots. And it's also perfect for left-handed users. The MagicWire™ contains all key features (Record, Zoom, PhotoShot™), and it even lets you create live video commentary with a built-in Narration Mic."

Give Panasonic a call and I'm sure they can help you find excactly what you need.

Thanks for clearing it up. SOrry about the 'misspeak' but I didn't know. I'll check on this item. I appreciate the response

That's quite alright. It always gives us an opportunity to learn something we didn't know before. Seems like a nice camcorder.
