<p>I have recently purchased the "<strong>Pearstone Freewave Wireless Remote Shutter Release for Canon</strong>" from B&H (B&H # PERWC2). I have been very happy with it. Plugs into the N3 socket and the wireless trigger works up to 320'.<br>

Cheers, Kevin</p>

<p>I have been using a product from Scooter Software, Beyond Compare, for years. Absolutely a great product. Here's the link: www.scootersoftware.com</p>

<p>"Over the edge" 'Valley of Fire' near Las Vegas on Monday at sunset<br>

EOS 7D, 24-105mm f/4L, ISO:200, 100mm, 1/250 sec, f/11, -1/3EV</p>

<p>I have been watching intently for quite some time to the WFT units. Why is it that Canon thinks we need separate incompatible modules for all their bodies? I have had their 10D, 30D, 40D & the 50D bodies, purchasing WFT units for all these bodies is not realistic. I now have the 7D and 5DmkII and would like to use the wireless capability, but I am not buying two units. One is expensive enough. WiFi has not changed, why have the modules?</p>

<p>Thank you all very much for your comments, always very informative.<br>

<p>I have a question about the 5DmkII vs the 7D pertaining to sensor resolution. <br /> <br /> The 5DmkII has a 36x24mm sensor and a resolution of 5616x3744 pixels resulting in a 156x156 pixels/mm.<br /> <br /> The 7D has a 22.3x14.9mm sensor and a resolution of 5184x3456 pixels resulting in approx 232x232 pixels/mm.<br /> <br /> To try to get an apples to apples comparison of the two camera sensors I reduced the 5DmkII by the crop factor of 1.6 resulting in 22.5x15mm which is very close to the 7D sensor (22.3x14.9).<br /> <br /> The question I have is if the two sensors are now similar, but the pixel density is much higher in the 7D, which one would give the better image? Is this a reasonable way to compare the two cameras?</p>

I have lived in Edmonton for most of my 50 years and I have bought most of my camera gear at McBains. I agree, you need to find the right people to get the right answers, but this is true of anything in these times. See Leslie, she was very helpful when I recently purchased my new 30D camera, 24-105 f/4L lens, and 50mm f/1.4 lens. As stated prior, do your homework and McBain will price match any other 'brick & mortar' website. I have used www.robinsonscamera.com, www.sanealcamera.com as a reference.
