1 out of 5 stars Please be sure you want this,   January 3, 2007

The rebel wireless remote is not a good device. I see there are several reviews that praise the device, which I don't understand.

The device has a very weak transmitter that only work with line of site.

The device does work, but NOT WELL. I like watching people hold the remote and try to fire the camera. It looks something like a conductor, conducting the LA philharmonic in the 1812 overture. It's IR port is like a laser beam. You better point the device RIGHT at the IR port on your camera. Forget taking a photo while standing behind the camera with the remote. If you people already own this device you know what I'm talking about. Very weak sauce. Very cheap device. A corded plug in remote is the only way to go.

This is a piece of junk. I hope you believe it, or you will end up buying two remotes. Not to mention that the rebel remote has no features or controls. My corded remote allows me to set any feature on my EOS, as well as intervals, and much more. I use my remote for time lapse photography.

...except that this is what you want for group pictures where you want to actually appear. It has decent range and I like the fact that it has a clip that can be attached to the camera strap so you'll never lose it and you'll keep it handy all the time.

The remote can also double as a tripod firing trigger (by reaching under and in front of the camera to hit the sensor) if you don't have a real cord trigger. It's clumsy but it works.

Can attach to the strap using the companion plate, very handy, 3 modes (lock, instant, 2 seconds delay). Tripod, this remote timer & mirror lock-up can make some amazing pictures.

I bought this remote to use in studio work. I wasted my money. Try getting the perfect smile on a baby and then finagling around trying to get your camera to take the picture.


4 out of 5 stars Nice remote, tricky to use   December 6, 2006

An excellent item to reduce camera shake, or get in group shots. A bit tricky when you're in a rush (this has its own on switch, and the camera needs to be set to a remote mode to accept its signals) so I prefer the cable-release remote over this one. The one I have seems to be really sensitve to line of sight, even indoors, which has forced me to be in front of, or in front and slightly aside of, the camera.
