Customer Reviews

RC-5 is great
Great product. Works as advertise. You do have to be directly in front of the camera for it to work.

SATISFIED
I USED THIS TO TAKE OUR FAMILY CHRISTMAS PICTURE THIS YEAR AND IT WAS VERY EASY TO USE AND SMALL ENOUGH TO HIDE IN THE PICTURE. IT FITS WITHIN THE PLAM OF YOUR HAND SO YOU CAN HIDE IT FOR THE PHOTO. GLAD I BOUGHT IT!!

works just like it should
Bought this for my Canon Rebel XT so I could shoot on a tripod and not have to worry about camera shake from pressing the shutter button, or wait 10 seconds for the timer for every picture. It makes the wait for long exposures that much quicker and more efficient.

Sometimes it's a little tricky to get a signal on it since you can only click it from the front of the camera, but it's a negligible annoyance.

Also, it does auto-focus the camera when you click, so if you're auto-focusing through the camera yourself already, I'd suggest getting a focus on your object and then switching it to manual focus, so the camera doesn't try to re-focus on something else.

All in all, great product.
