Do i have to switch IR on to use the vertical shutter release and then switch to single shot to use the camera shutter release?

Yes, you will need to have the camera set in Remote mode to receive the signal from a wireless remote if you want to use the shutter release on the battery grip.

I cannot answer this question as I am unable to figure out what you are trying to do.

Hi, as I understand, you want to flip the screen and don't take a selfie? This function gets activated only if you fully turn the screen toward yourself. Why would you do this if you don't want to take a selfie? (If you don't want a selfie just use ir in a normal way). I don't know if I understood your question. The camera just use the front len.

There is nothing in the documentation or on the Sony web site dealing with IR, so I presume the answer to your question is "No."

On my camera I am able to choose "Bulb" setting which allows long exposures. Using my remote I activate the opening of the shutter, using it again closes the shutter. There is only one button on the remote. Remember to point the remote at the infrared receiver on the camera. On mine I had to point at the front of the camera.

No. And it is annoying to flip between cameras. It is not instantaneous when you move from view to view...each camera has to load, initiate, etc. can take up to a minute. Belkin should change this.

It's just a remote shutter release. You need a special flash unit for that.

No, you do not have to hold the button down. Press once to start exposure, press again to stop. BTW...Might I suggest the RC-6 rather than the RC-5 remote. The difference is that the RC-5 has only a 2-second delay shutter release, whereas the RC-6 has a switch to change from 2-second to immediate shutter release. A much better choice in my opinion.

Does the remote need to be pointed directly toward the camera, or I could I discretely signal the shutter release with my hands behind my back for example? Hoping to avoid running back and forth for large group photos.

I don't have the camera in front of me right now, but I know you can chose aperature or shutter priority. You can also do a +-2 on exposure. I don't believe you can have full manual exposure control.

Not sure if I understand the question but... You have to connect the receiver to the camera via a sync cord. The remote is completely wireless from the receiver and will activate the shutter release. Until it decides to stop working like mine did.

No just plug it to camera body, make sure your dip switches are set to each other and shoot away.

If you use the included cable, it does allow you to use either shutter button as you want. It also allows for A/F when pushing either button halfway down. Having to have the cable plugged in is a minor annoyance but otherwise it's awesome.

You could use a radio wireless remote shutter release but they cost $10 or $15 more. They will also work at greater distance than the IR type which your camera isn't equipped for.

Which camera are you using? Which lens are you using? Some of the lenses have switches on the barrel. For those which do not , you should find the "off" in the same place where you select the stabilization mode (i.e. mode 1, mode 2). Look under the Rec Menu. It should be there. Without knowing what items you are attempting to work with, that is about as specific as I can get.

This is a setting on your camera. look in your user manual under remote control shooting. It's a setting that I had to change on my camera. for Cannon Rebel t3i I had to change the setting from Single to "self timer/remote". I hope this helps

Yes you can. You can wire the camera through a on/off rocker switch. If you have a rear camera also installed there is a liquid crystal display monitor that has a V1 or V2 (view) switch and you can alternate between cameras as necessary.

No infrared release, however, if you have a smartphone you can control it remotely from the free Panasonic app. You can also purchase a wired release.
