5 out of 5 stars Works as advertised AND WILD FUN   August 3, 2008
This tiny little thing works very well. Used it on a Canon 20D and a 40D. Those who experienced dead batteries on arrival, I wonder if they noticed the near-invisible, ultra-thin hard plastic one of the batteries was wrapped in. I too, thought the battery was dead, until, a little upset, I finally noticed the thin layer of shiny plastic over the contacts. The silly stuff covered the whole battery; and so tightly, you don't even notice it's there, and it doesn't prevent the battery from being inserted!


5 out of 5 stars Great Remote   August 1, 2008
Pros:
It works well
has good range
decent size
SUPPORTS BULB! (turn off auto focus, then hold the button until the light turns off(about 2 seconds) then just hit the button again when you are done with the exposure.)

Cons:
the button on the remote is VERY sensitive for autofocusing(not too bad) but be careful when you are doing a bulb exposure because you could easily end it
Speaking of bulb exposures, the light on the remote is really bright, make sure you cover it or aim away from your long exposures

Overall the build quality is good and it works very well. I just wish canon would stop being so cheap and add an internal receiver to their cameras so that i dont have to have a stupid dongle hanging from the camera.

i wasted my money, it work only some times and only a couple feet of distance, very dissapointed.

I have the exact same remote, but I didn't buy it from Adorama, I bought it from Link-Delight in Hong Kong on eBay for $27 including shipping to the US. Works great, am very happy with the product, especially that it has user-replaceable batteries. Can't beat it for the price!

I wanted a wireless remote for my 40D for my vacation, however did not have the money to buy Canon's pricey remote so settled for this one instead.

It requires two different battery types, a CR2 battery and an A23 battery, both readily available at Wal-mMart or most pharmacies- and thankfully so, because the CR2 the remote came with was dead.

It's a pain to have to carry around two more batteries, plus my AA's and my 40D batteries- and it is pretty cheaply built. The remote is small and fits in the palm nicely.

A great alternative to Canon's remote.
