Has anyone used this for video? I imagine it would work well for videography as well as photography...

Hello.....I bought the remote exclusively for still shooting without intentions to use for videography so your question intrigued me so I plugged it into my Canon EOS T3i and set camera to video and well....sorry to say the answer is no. It doesn't work in video mode with my T3i.

Yes, and the video quality is excellent. Be aware that camera's microphone is small. It's fine for indoor filming, but you can get wind noise when filming outdoors. That goes for most video camera too. Video uses up your camera's card very fast, so carry a spare! Regards Zeke

It does a good job with video, as it's HD, at 720p. However, it doesn't seem to adjust focus well, if you change the telephoto setting while filming. It's better to stop recording, adjust your teldphoto lens to where you want it, then re-focus before recording again. I have not uploaded to YouTube yet, so I can't comment on that, but it should work OK.

Yes. There is a constant on setting specifically for video use and it works quite well. You should be able to find the owners manual online in advance to be sure this fits your needs if you are still not sure.

I have never tried it for video, however, I would stay as far away from this camera as possible - it is JUNK. There is a major issue concerning the lens getting stuck in the extended position and remaining there. The camera is unuseable unless repaired and in Canada, there is a flat repair fee of $159 (including tax and shipping) - you can get a used one for half on e-bay. My first one was in my pocket when the lens jammed and I had to scrap it. I bought a second one and it jammed while I was using it. Just Google "Canon ELPH lens problems" and you will get a whole pile of hits. Canon must know it is a piece of junk yet instead of giving you a break with repairs, rip you off.

It does do video but would not recommend the camera. I was not impressed. Would pay a little more and get a better one. Quality was not the best.

Yes. I purchased one of these a few months ago. It is awesome! It does amazing video and incredible pictures.

we have not tried it for that purpose, but we used it for time lapses and it worked great.

I really don't know - I got very little use out of it before it died on me and during that time I never tried running it continuously until it "ran out" - I used it mainly for pictures, not for videos.

I think there are better alternatives for your hobby, I am using this one for sports and sometimes for inside meetings that I record. Hope to be helpful. Good luck ;)

I've used it to watch YouTube videos and it works great for that. I've also uploaded a video with no problems. I have not used the built in camera, though.

Don't use it so much for videos but I recently went to a car show and the battery went dead after 147 pictures. Seems like the battery used to last longer [about 1 yr. old] so I may get a spare, but it's great for the price and I was going to spend $750 to $800 , glad I got this one . Good luck.

I do not use it for video. Only audio. Even If it played video without a hitch, the quality would not be that great. Stick to audio only. Get something else for video.

I think it is good for video calls or recording but not so good for pictures

It does, but I wouldn't recommend it for video. It is designed for macro photography. My recommendation would be to do some research into lighting systems.

I have this tripod and have only used it once. This one has 3 different handles that control the head instead of one or two. I find it works very well for what I use it for which is taking photos. I also am use to using a video camera on a tripod but have never tried a video camera on this tripod. I think it would work just fine.
