 i am a fussy guy... but then again... November 1, 2005
13 out of 15 found this review helpful
i got this when i bought my EOS100 more than 10 years ago. i have since lost the clip that let you secure it to a strap or more likely it's at the bottom of a drawer some where in the house...
i'm glad it works with my EOS350D.
i also own the cabled RS-60E3 remote switch, and of course you can still use the self-timer to release the shutter. inevitably, this little piece of plastic has to be compared with the alternatives...
what i like about it:
- it's small.
- it's light.
- it has the delay option.
- it works with many EOS models, film and digital.
- no contact with camera
- no cable to dangle hence work better for very long exposure e.g. astrophotography
what i don't like about it:
- need to point it at the front of the camera to work. rather awkward if you are standing behind it. so, if you need to stand behind the camera to shoot long exposures or macros, get the cabled RS-60E3 or a homemade equivalent.
- needs a better mean to secure the thing. the clip didn't quite work for me because it got snared in all sort of things
- the IR windows seem to be rather narrow - makes you look funny when you stand in front of the camera waving the thing around and nothing happen.
- it requires a battery.
- a rather expensive piece of plastic at $25.
 Good remote October 18, 2005

The remote works great with my Digital Rebel. I can now take pictures with my tripod without shaking the camera (the shutter on the camera is a no-go for macro photography), and I like it better than using the delay shutter of the camera.
I suggest to attach the remote to the belt on the opposite side of the shutter button, to avoid it banging on the camera body when taking portrait pictures.
Overall I like the 2 seconds delay and immediate picture shot modes it offers.
Great Gadget October 9, 2005

Not only is this remote great for self-portraits but it's also a great help on nighttime shots. Even when my camera is mounted on a tripod, there is a slight wiggle whenever I press the shutter button. This remote enables me to activate the shutter without touching the camera. The result is a much crisper long exposure.
Deciding whether to buy this is a no brainer! September 29, 2005

Smaller than a tube of chapstick, this remote toggle is easy and fun. You don't have to worry about losing it, because it has an attachment to your camera photo strap, so it is always with you when you need it. This great little tool has worked great for me every time I have needed it, and it has been a fun way to take self portraits in different lights, with different settings - with camera mounted to a tripod of course. All of this has meant that I am able to self-teach my camera's many features.
It comes with a small battery that looks like a watch battery, etc. I guess I will be going to radio shack for a replacement when the time comes, but for now, it has been a fun little tool or toy that would make a great gift for that photographer in your life!
