Digital camera reviews of Canon RC-1 Wireless Remote Control for Select DSLR Cameras

Digital camera Review: A great accessory
Summary: 5 Stars

It's a tiny gizmo that hides in your hand when you take a group photo or you just don't want to touch the camera because of vibrations or whatever reason. I find it to be a very valuable little tool.
During group shots you can keep firing the shutter descretely to capture candid shots with you in it and doing night or macro shots you can use it as a cable release.
It has a strap clip but I just toss it in the bag when I'm done. It weighs just a couple of grams too.

I luv it and wouldn't leave home without it.

Digital camera Review: A great addition
Summary: 5 Stars

This remote control has been a great addition to my camera equipment. The handy carrier threads on to the camera strap allowing you to snap the remote control onto the camera strap for easy/handy access.

The delayed release works great for pictures that you want to be a part of and the instant release is great for vibration free time lapse shots from a tripod for those lowlight shots.


Digital camera Review: A great remote. It also attaches to the strap!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a gret remote for an IR remote. Yes it is limited to line of sight and 16 feet (as advertised). But given that it IS an infrared remote this remote is just about perfect.

The slide switch has 3 positions Lock, Instant shutter, and 2 second delay.

But the BEST feature (which is not list in the description) is that the remote comes with a clip that holds it to the camera strap. You can leave this thing on the strap so you always have it with you. When you need it, press a button and pop it off the clip. If I had known that the choice between the rc-1 and the rc-5 would have been easier.



Digital camera Review: A must have accessory
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this for my Rebel a while back and kept it for my XT. I use it for Macro shots on a tripod (so I don't introduce camera shake). I use it at night for long exposures (lots of second curtain flash sequences with the kids and flashlights...).

I use it for family photos where I want to get into the picture (and use the 2 second timer).

I just found out it doesn't work on the xxD line (ie the 40D).

Digital camera Review: A must have item
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a must have item. It's very small, fits in the palm of your hand, and can be attached to your camera strap so it's always with you. The size of this unit is perfect. You can get yourself and your family together, press the shutter release button with the 2 second delay turned on, and then close your hand, hiding the remote in the palm of your hand! When the photo is taken, no one will see the remote hidden in your hand! It's perfect. You'll wonder how you ever got along without it.
