 Worth the money August 1, 2008

The remote is handy, small and it does what it is supposed to do. It looks quite good I might say and I am very happy I took this instead of canon original. For this kind of simple products (not high-tech) it is not worth paying for the brand.
After setting the camera in the "remote mode" then press S/2S and you'll get the picture.
On the other hand, the limited acting distance is what I expected. It is the same as with the TV set remote. You can not use infrared from very long distance
Incredible idea, fabulous item. December 3, 2008

Fabulous, pocket size, help you to work off camera not touching it at all and no having troubles with cables. Now I'm sometimes in the photos I take.
Perfect working condition, cheap (not the hard prices of the Canon originals)and battery is available practically everywhere.
I would recommend it for everyone having a Canon EOS.
Compatible with Canon T1i and BULB works great. June 25, 2009

I just got the remote and I'm very pleased so far. It works with my Rebel T1i and you can use it for the BULB mode (click once to open shutter, click again to turn shutter off).
The 2S mode will take 2 second and then open the shutter.
Very happy so far and I hope the battery lasts.
Excellent Product December 1, 2008

I love this camera remote. It actual has more functions than the one Canon sells for my Canon Digital Rebel XSi (450D). The range is awesome. I love the delay button... works great when doing self portraits. I use this remote all of the time when I'm shooting from my tripod. I highly recommend this remote to any camera user. So easy to use and it works flawlessly. Very impressed!
Love it October 16, 2009

Works great with the Canon XSi. I had a bit of an issue finding the setting on the camera, but one email to Opteka (with a quick response within a couple hours) and I had it working great. See below for setting up the Canon Rebel:
Please perform the following actions to get the remote to work on your Canon Digital Rebel:
1. Turn on the camera.
2. Press the "Drive mode" menu button.
3. Toggle between different setting using left and right arrow.
4. Make sure that the "Self-timer/Remote control" option is highlighted.
5. Press set button.
S (shutter release), and 2S (2 Second delayed shutter), are the only operative buttons for an SLR.
The S (shoot), W+T (zoom control), are for select powershot point-and-shoot cameras.
