Customer Reviews

CANON EOS Digital Rebel XT
This is probably the best money I have spent on my camera in a very long time.

The holder attaches permanently to the neckstrap so you always have it with you. It can also be used to prop the camera level using the indentation in the holder base, even while on the neckstrap if you are careful where on the strap you put it.

I have found there are three settings: the dot is instant focus and shoot, the 2 has a 2-second delay before shooting, and the L is off.

It works from a variety of angles (but all must be from in front, even slightly) of the camera body (not the lens). I have also managed to get shots at 90 degrees from the camera and slightly ahead of the body.

Full moon, fireworks, and any other dark shot is a breeze with this.

For fixed distance shots, I recommend using the auto focus and then switching the lens to manual.

Play with the ISO settings as well. Darker images can be obtained with using the BULB feature and a lower ISO setting.

Lighter images higher ISO and longer delay.

To take a photo with "perfect light" set the camera to Manual and adjust the dial to the length you want the shutter to remain open. Focus, press the button and it will take the photo.

Longer shooting times just set to BULB and focus. Press the button on the remote once, wait the length of time you want and press the button again. The shutter remains open until the second press.

nice investment for Canon EOS DSLR owner
I have used it a lot. For group pictures as well as night shots. Its truly value for money and serious photographers should consider buying this for un-touched night or low light snaps. As usual the price on amazon was steal.

Won't work on 5d
This thing dose not work on the 5d probably not on any of the high end cameras
