Q: 1. I need to record some video on my 70D using a prompter and remote. Is this the unit I should purchase?

A: Yes it will. Once you push to button towards your camera that's on a tripod it will take the picture or start your video if you are in the mode. I have an 80D Canon and it works fine with it and the 70D. Just make sure it's pointing at the camera and you can be several feet away, like 15 I think.

Q: 8. Does it first focus with the half-press?

A: One correction I want to make, when putting my camera (5D mkIII) In Auto exposure mode, the camera will engage AF when pressing the remote control, and then take the image. When using Av mode however, the AF was not being engaged in my prior tests. So, this gives you the choice of pre-focusing prior and make sure the AF does not get done again, so have it done at the same time when pressing the R/C.

Q: 9. will this work for the new mirrorless EOS R?

A: Yes it will, just make sure you enable the remote function on your camera.
