This AmazonBasics remote offers wireless operation for a compatible DSLR without a pairing routine. The video demonstrates the Canon version's photo and video settings and explains why the correct brand-specific version matters.
My demonstration uses the Canon version. I described operation without programming or pairing after enabling the camera’s remote-control setting, automatic focus and flash as needed for photos, and the camera menu steps to enable remote control for video.

Quick Verdict
This AmazonBasics remote works without programming or pairing once the camera’s remote-control setting is enabled. My demonstration covers the Canon version for photos and video; the video also describes a separate Nikon version. Confirm compatibility with your camera before choosing a remote.
