I have no experience with the Zigview. The Pentax Cable Switch CS-205 (and Canon Remote Switch RS-60E3) wired remotes work exactly like the on-body shutter release and add the nicety of a lock for the release button, allowing extended time exposures on Bulb without having to keep the button pressed. The Canon one is a little cheaper and has a longer cable. The infrared Pentax Remote F allows only single exposures per press of the button, you cannot elect continuous drive mode while using the remote. Other things about it: - It will hold the shutter open for as long as you hold the button down in Bulb exposure mode. - The body can be set to release the shutter with or without AF focusing first (the default is without). - If the body is set to 3sec-remote, it does the mirror pre-fire like the self timer mode with the on-body or cable remote releases. - If the body is set to auto-bracket, you must press the IR remote's button for each exposure in the bracket sequence.
