> Grandparents had a Heathkit TV like this with an ultrasonic remote that could also be controlled by jingling keys

I wished my Sony A7 had such a nice and elegant shortcut for remote video recording. Instead it has a crappy little remote control that eats batteries like candy and that seems to un-pair spontaneously in mid recording session and other such niceties.
