For long exposure photography and for sharp photo’s, you need to use a remote shutter control. Why be bound by a cable to your camera when you can have wireless.

You’re probably wondering whats with the title considering this is a review of the Westone UM2 earphones. Well if you have ever seen the Shure E5c earphones you would be right to think the UM2’s look like the twin brother that never was.
The E5’s have been discontinued and Shure have been left with a gap till the new SE420 are launched. To fill that gap Westone have stepped in with the UM2.

Read my feelings about this phone…. (more…)
