Works perfectly5
I purchased this to take tripod photos and it works like a charm. Especially when taking portraits of kids, they don't even know it is coming!

A great accessory5
Canon's remote shutter release cable is very well built and performs beautifully. A must have if you are going to be taking any shots using a slow shutter speed. The button is responsive and the tactile feedback makes it easy to differentiate between autofocus and shutter release. It even has grooved sides and a notch on top and bottom to securely wrap the cable and is topped off with a hole to insert the plug for nice tidy storage. Don't think about it, just buy it!

An essential piece of equipment5
Although I managed for a time with the delayed shutter release option when using my 400D on a tripod, the 10 second delay between pressing the shutter and the taking of the picture frequently meant the scene had changed. So I went for the obvious, a cable release or remoter switch. As I do a lot of close-up photography working behind the camera this seemed the better option over a wireless remote which operates from the front

With a very positive action it is easier to control the dual operation than using the camera's own button. In fact I use whenever there is the likelihood of camera shake, and not just when using the camera with a tripod; hand held telephoto shots or close-up shots, or when selecting a slow shutter speed it is invaluable as one can press the shutter realise with no fear of moving the camera.
