What equipment are you using to do that? I'd love to do some remote work on my bird feeders. Ya know that you can use your pocket wizards as remote camera triggers, right? (Requires a separate cable... but they work quite well)

Exactly - the cable goes from the PW to the remote shutter socket. Then you handhold another PW and press the test button to trigger... you can even AF with it
