 Works great September 14, 2004

I am using this remote with a Canon EOS Digital Rebel and it works great! It would be nice to get the RC-1 so there isn't a 2 sec delay, but for my needs the RC-5 is fine.
works just like it should September 30, 2007

Bought this for my Canon Rebel XT so I could shoot on a tripod and not have to worry about camera shake from pressing the shutter button, or wait 10 seconds for the timer for every picture. It makes the wait for long exposures that much quicker and more efficient.
Sometimes it's a little tricky to get a signal on it since you can only click it from the front of the camera, but it's a negligible annoyance.
Also, it does auto-focus the camera when you click, so if you're auto-focusing through the camera yourself already, I'd suggest getting a focus on your object and then switching it to manual focus, so the camera doesn't try to re-focus on something else.
All in all, great product.
Simple and effective. January 1, 2009

The Canon RC-5 does what it promises: remotely trigger the shutter. Keep in mind that there is a 2 second delay between pressing the button and the shutter action. This allows you, if you are in the field of view, to put your hand down and hide the remote so that it is not in the shot.
RC-5 is great February 8, 2008

Great product. Works as advertise. You do have to be directly in front of the camera for it to work.
RC-5 is Great! July 28, 2008
