Nothing else required?GARY B : I have been using it with my olympus E-620, it does everything it's supposed to do, it was nice taking pictures remote while standing in the groupe. be sure the camera is set for remoteREX D : The OM-D does not support any infrared remotes, including the RM-1. There are various radio remotes, with receiver modules that imitate the wired remote, that will work.GEORGE B : No. From the Olympus web site's OM-D E-M5 FAQ: The RM-UC1 Remote Cable Release is compatible with this camera. The RM-UC1 connects to the same USB port on the camera that is used to connect the camera to a computer. The RM-UC1 has a sliding lock to lock the cable release for BULB exposures.ALFRED P : I don't know what om-dm means, but it works with my camera.

And 10 seconds later, it takes the picture.BETH D : I don't think it does. I use a cable release.BETH D : I don't think so. I haven't gotten mine to work with the OM-D yet. I use a cable release.Ben P : It works with E Series I have 520 and E-3 and is great Nothing else required just set the camera to R C.

Much better than I thought

This is one of those things I did not think i really needed, until i used, now can live without it. Takes the place of my expensive RF transmitter for all but extreme long distance shooting. Nice and small and works perfectly each time

Haven't used it must, but I will at the

I will also try it during close-up shots to reduce vibration.

Works Great!

This is my second remote. Bought first one used on and it didn't last long. Works great where long exposures are needed or just want to be included in group photos.

Doesn't work w/Olympus Stylus Cameras

This remote does not work with all Stylus cameras for Olympus. I recently bought an Olympus Stylus 1050 SW camera and tried to set it with the remote but the remote did not work!

Perfect for use with tripod

I use this with the E-510 for evening and night shots for longer exposures. It's easy to use and eliminates shake from pressing the shutter botton. It's also great for getting me into the shot, for a change.

Great Gadget

The remote is everything I hoped it would be. It's easy to use and small enough to carry in a shirt pocket. It's great for including yourself in a family group shot. Just put it on the 2 second delay and you can hide the remote at your side so it's not seen in the photo.

Needs to have easier set-up with camera

Had a little bit of trouble getting it set up to work with my camera. Hopefully, that has been taken care of.Look forward to using it to take self-portraits, and photos with me included in family group shots.

It's a remote

When you want to be in the picture, this is the tool to have. Using with a delay timer gives you time to hide the remote.

Works, but its a little tricky.

I got this to take photos where I would be in the shot. The downside to this remote is you have to point the remote at the front of the camera to use it. This works okay if you are taking photos of yourself (if you can do it at an angle where you dont see yourself holding it). I was thinking of using this in the studio for macro shots so I didnt shake the camera but I would have to hold it over the top of the camera and point it at the sensor.

Control your digital camera remotely and put yourself in the family photo.

Works with the Olympus E Series, C Series and Stylus Series Cameras.

Note: This is also a replacement for the RM-2 remote which is supplied with someof the digital cameras such as the Stylus series.
