Scragrat Posted June 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Tony, it wont take record video when the remote is plugged in. Go through menu and select your settings, leave switched on and remove control cable. Now switch off then back on again and you should get a red light flashing for a few seconds where the LED's are. The unit should be activated. Nothing lights up or flashes when it takes pics or videos. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyrapid177mk2 Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 When I first connected the remote with the camera switched off then turned the camera on the remote light up and I went through the settings on it then I unplugged the remote and the camera flashed a few times then started taking still pics..so I switched it off then plugged the remote back in to view the pics and nothing the remote won't light so I can view whats on it...does this make sense..cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madness Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 you can't view anything on the remote it's just for setting the camera, i remove the memory card from mine and slide it in the card reader slot on my computor and download the images that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stubby Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 I had read a few reviews that the remote was hard to figure out for its use, a little glad now that I stuck with the maplin ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

activeviii Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 you can view recordings and photos with the remote, you can also test with the remote plugged in. I have a better instruction book here i will try and sort for you. my card packed up straight away so put new card in. lesson is do not format on pc. only format in the camera. i read that bit once it was to late. Plug the remote in and then turn the camera on. the camera beeps when you plug in and the screen flickers white then off. turn the camera on. press the middle button and it will start recording. press again to stop. press the right button to play recordings this is a 5mp camera but its works just the same. http://www.bresser.com/manuals/Bresser%20%205MP%20Manual.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks very much for the help and the link...I knew I had read somewhere that you can view the pics on the remote control...but not videos...I've had to ring lidl customer care this morning so they could find me a replacement and I've just been and picked it up so hopefully ill be alright with this one...cheers...atb http://www.bresser.com/manuals/Bresser 5MP Manual.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
