Digital camera Review: A 'Short' Review of the Canon Remote Switch RS60 E3
Summary: 4 Stars
I really like making photographs in low light, but I don't care for coarse grain or the 'bugs' artifacts created by using high ISO settings (above ISO 400) with digital cameras. This is my one issue with my old Panasonic Lumix FZ50. I had always used a cable release with film cameras, and finding an electric one for my Lumix and a subsequent Olympus E-510, I decided this was a must-have for my camera bag.
I found the Canon Remote on Amazon to be about the best price. Receiving the remote, I found it worked great, but I felt the 2-foot cable was a little short. It's generally not too inconvenient and it does what I expect it to do, but another foot or so would be welcome (hey Canon, why not a full meter?). I found a 6-foot, 3-conductor stereo extension at the local cables and connectors store, and now I can get as far back as I need to. Now, if only I could rig a decent remote monitor...
In short -- I love the product, but I would love it more if the cable was a little longer.

Digital camera Review: A Great Way to Spend $20.00

If you are taking tripod shots, you've got to have this. No sense using a tripod if you've got to press the shutter on the camera. Since you are not using stabilization with a tripod, it doesn't make sense to press the camera shutter as this causes movement. You want perfectly still - and this switch does that!Digital camera Review: A Must Have

If you are in the studio or on location and want to see your subjects as they are to the naked eye and not through the small view finder, this is a must have for any photographer using a tripod. This will eliminate unwanted camer shake.Digital camera Review: A Must have for EOS 2000
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a must have accessories for EOS 2000 owner who wants to step beyond the artistic touch. I used to use the timer to take picture in low light or motion effect just to erase the possibility of jerking my camera.But I hate it because I need to wait the timer to start and to stop when there is possibility of people passing or other unexpected things messing up my picture.
With this remote, I'm able to snap right a way without waiting the timer to end. Beside if you want to experiment with the "BULB" settings, the chance of you jerking off the Camera while using the remote is None.
However, you still need a Tripod to set-up your camera perfectly.
Digital camera Review: A Must have!
Summary: 5 Stars
I always use a remote when shooting on a tripod and sometimes when i'm not. I like to shoot evening and night shots. With a remote I get less vibration which is a killer for long exposures. This is my second remote (for a different camera). I've had the first one for about 3 years and have never had a problems of any kind with it. You can pre-focus with this remote as the button goes half-way down just like your shutter, or you can push it all the way down if you are manual focused. There is no risk of radio interference from other photographers with a wired remote. The length of the cable is adequate for most all situations. I keep the remote in a ziplock baggie in my camera case at all times.
