This is true. I tried that technique with the LX and the ME-Super, using a long cord to activate the camera. I think the cord I have is six or nine feet long, and using it allowed me to walk around a bit, talk with the lady I was photographing, and get her to be a little more animated and natural. It's a good technique.
