Customer Reviews

Great product - Worth the price.
This is, by far, one of the best purchases I've made as far as digital camera accessories go. In my opinion, it is well worth the $30 that I paid.

I am not a terribly steady person, so even with my camera on a tripod, when my finger would press the shutter release button on the camera I would still get a little camera shake. This remote ends camera shake!

That said, I have to agree with a previous reviewer who said that they would prefer a little more tactile feedback at the AF point (press half way down) on the remote button. It is difficult to tell where exactly half way is. I found, though, that you get used to that rather quickly as you and the remote form a quality relationship. :-)

Also, the cord length is not optimal. With my camera on my tripod at eye-level and the remote plugged into the side of my camera, I am barely able to drop my arm down to my side. But again, another reviewer has come up with a way of extending the length for little cost.

All in all, I am VERY happy with my purchase and would recommend this to anyone who asked.

A great start.
I love this little shutter release cable. Yes, the cable is a little on the short side but it is very simple and easy to use. It completely eliminates shake and blur on slow shutter speeds. Also, it is ideal for the bulb setting if you use that kind of thing. I highly recommend this product to people that don't need to be long distances from their camera but still need a shutter release cable.

Worth the price...
I tried to save a few bucks by buying a 'no-name' remote that was supposed to be compatible with my Canon Rebel XTi- it wasn't. The 'no-name' remote would only work if the connector wasn't fully inserted into the camera- and even then it'd only work 20% of the time. The Canon RS60 E3 remote works all the time, every time. If you're shooting with a tripod and are after 'razor-sharp' pictures- you need this remote.
