Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon RC-1 Wireless Remote Control for Select DSLR Cameras
Customer Review: Great replacement for lost wired remote
Summary: 5 Stars
I lost the wired remote for my Digital Rebel XT, so ordered this as a replacement. Also, if I happen to find the wired one, I won't end up with 2 of the same remote. So far, it has worked just fine. The IR receiver on the camera is on the front of the grip, which is odd, but that's not a ding on the remote. Range seems to be decent (good enough for a family photo from about 20 feet), and the battery is holding up nicely. The ability to lock it in the "Off" condition is nice, too, especially if you keep it in a bag where the button could possibly get depressed by other gear (a bit hard to do if it's stored in its strap-mounted base clip).Customer Review: Perfect
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this remote control from amazon.com and shipping was in time.
I opened the box inmediately upon arrival and started using this little remote with my Canon Rebel XT, it has worked flawlessly, it has a two position switch which allows you to release the shutter inmediately or with a two seconds delay. It is perfect for group pictures or family portraits in which you want to be part of, and not be hidden behind the camera. It is also useful for tripod mounted long exposures because it eliminates vibration caused by your hands on shutter release.
So if you own a Revel XT and like photography this is a must.
Customer Review: wonderful...
Summary: 5 Stars
This little piece of equipment is wonderful! It's so small and light that you won't even notice it when it's attached to your neck strap. Rather than using the RS-60E3 remote switch with a tiny 4ft. cord which can get tangled up, use this and have all the flexiblity in the world...well at least up to 16ft. You can use it like a standard shutter release or with a 2 second delay. But the main reason I purchased this remote was to use for bulb exposures--just push the button once to open the shutter and when you're done just push it again to close. And the best thing about the RC1 is the price. At just $20 you can't go wrong.Customer Review: Very handy little remote.
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently got this remote and I love it. I mean whats so special about a remote? Well it's wireless and you don't have to set the timer and run to get into the picture. I have used it for landscape pictures on my tripod to reduce camera shake. It was very cool to set up the shot, wait for the camera to be still and then take the shot. If you have a camera that works with this remote (I have the Canon Rebel XT) and want a remote, get it. It is compact, appears sturdy and works well. It comes with a clip to put it on your camera strap that covers the button so it doesn't get pressed when it is mounted into the clip.Customer Review: Simple and convenient
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the second one of these Canon wireless remotes I've purchased. I purchased the first one for my Digital Rebel XT and then kept it when I up graded to an XSi. I kept the XSi and bought a 5D MK II which utilizes the same technology. In order to always have it on the camera I'm using at any given time I bought a second RC1 for my new camera. It's inexpensive and works well for any line of sight triggering you want to do. I especially like it for doing long exposures and macro photography. I highly recommend the Canon Wireless Remote Control RC1 for anyone who owns a camera with that technology.
