 The remote is very cool July 27, 2006
It took a minute to get the hang of the adjustments needed to the camera, but after that (10 mins) I was all smiles. Great little gadget.
 Great for Digital Rebel or Digital Rebel XT July 17, 2006

I liked it so much I bought two! Actually, I lost the first one and then found it the same day my new one came in. Now I have a backup.
My only complaint is that the holder is meant for use with a thin (stock) shoulder strap. I put on a much more comfortable (and thicker) aftermarket strap and the holder won't fit.
Until looking at the pictures in this review, I didn't realize that the holder can also be used to stabilize the lens (prevent camera from tipping forward) when the camera is set on a flat surface. Nice touch! (Unfortunately, I usually have the Vertical Grip installed which obviously makes the camera too tall for this feature.)
I guess I have another complaint, but it's not exactly about this product, it's about Canon's placement of the product: Canon does NOT support this infrared remote on their higher end digital cameras. They probably do this to avoid canibalizing sales of their much more EXPENSIVE (hundreds of dollars) but also MUCH longer range LC-5 (which doesn't work on the Rebel). They do the same thing with their wired remotes, so if you upgrade, you can use your lenses and flashes, but you have to upgrade your wired and wireless remotes. Not a good PR move.
works as advertized July 14, 2006

nice little remote works very well. It has three settings and comes with a direction sheet and a clip that allows you to attach to the neck strap.
Attaching the clip portion is a little hassle, but once it's in there, it's very secure and convenient to use.
there seems to be very slight lag, but nothing really noticeable. I only saw it because someone mentioned it. comes with the button type battery which will probably last the life time of your camera unless you are constantly using this remote.
More useful than you'd imagine. May 26, 2006

If you have any desire to be in the shot this is the tool you need. With the 2 second delay, you can point, click, and have the remote out of the shot. I love it because I don't have to worry about my toddler stumbling over a cable or wire. Combine this with the wired remote, and most remote possibilities are taken care of. For the price, you really can't go wrong.
Very handy little remote. May 26, 2006

I recently got this remote and I love it. I mean whats so special about a remote? Well it's wireless and you don't have to set the timer and run to get into the picture. I have used it for landscape pictures on my tripod to reduce camera shake. It was very cool to set up the shot, wait for the camera to be still and then take the shot. If you have a camera that works with this remote (I have the Canon Rebel XT) and want a remote, get it. It is compact, appears sturdy and works well. It comes with a clip to put it on your camera strap that covers the button so it doesn't get pressed when it is mounted into the clip.
