How far would you recommend? I know the D50 also has an option to use a 2 second delay when using the remote which should help in getting out of the way.

yep, this is what i do.... you can stand beind it.... hold the remote out about a foot to the side pointing inward to the cam...... and it will fire.

I'm glad this was posted.. I am trying to decide between a remote and a cable release for portrait things.. I think the cable release would be best since its hard to get an angle.. and the 2 sec delay.

This is awesome! But you dont have to use the timer you can just shoot with the remote, I got just mine and tried it! as somebody said its got timer, remote & timer and remote.
