5 out of 5 stars Great Item   August 17, 2008
Great product from canon ..a must have for serious photographers. Pricey but as advertised.


4 out of 5 stars Cable Release for Nikon D-300 w GeoPic II tagger   July 25, 2008
I bought this cable release to use with my Nikon D300 and the
Custom Idea GeoPic II - Direct Connect Geotagging GPS Unit for Nikon & Fujifilm Digital SLRs. The Geo Tracker plugs directly into the 10 pin connector of the Nikon - which blocks using the normal Nikon cable release. However, the GeoPic has a connection to add the Canon or compatible cable release. The combo works great together.

5 out of 5 stars Great device for a cheap price.   July 23, 2008

This remote is great. When I first got it, just testing it out makes my life easier for photography. It's much more easier than pressing the shutter button and causing even more shake. Simply, it works the way it was made. Some reviewers have given this item a low rating because they figured it was intended for self portraits, etc and the cable was not long enough (cable is around 1 1/2'). I don't believe this switch was intended for that but whatever. I'll primarily be using this for macro photography and astro photography and this is a major help to that. This shutter release also has a locked position so you can relax while the shutter is opened for longer periods (astro photography). Very cheap and very handy (although it seems Amazon has raised the price only a couple days after I bought it. $17 to $24?). Only con? Mistook the size. Smaller than envisioned. That's about it. Buy this if you're deep into photography and you won't regret it.

Not exactly what you would call a remote. It's a shutter release switch. Wish the line was longer.


5 out of 5 stars Nice accesory, works as expected   July 14, 2008

This is a great little product, specially if you use a tripod or are into astronomy photography. It mimics the functions of the shutter release button on the camera, without introducing any vibration to the body & lens. This is the main purpose of this remote. If you want to take a photo of a group of people including you, the wireless remote may be a better idea.

The cable is short, around 50cm or so. Contrary to other reviewers, I think it is good idea. Cables are usually too long and may knot and get in your way. The cable can be extended with a standard audio cable for very little $$.

Definitely recommended!
