Have a Question? See What Others Asked

Since so many different users have asked so many redundant questions, I can't help but ask this: will it work to remotely start a '57 Chevy?
do this work on eos 60d canon?
Does anyone know of a reflective setup in order for us to use the remote from behind? Are there plans for a simple build or even a manufactured unit?
Does this have the ability to lock open the camera, it said it was compatible with bulb mode, is that what that means?

Glad I bought it for my Canon T4i

GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS REVIEW FOR A COMPLETE LIST OF COMPATIBLE CANON CAMERA MODELS AS OF NOVEMBER 21, 2013 -- AND PLEASE PEOPLE, STOP ASKING ME IF THIS GADGET IS COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR CAMERA: GO TO THE CANON WEBSITE OR LOOK IN THE MANUAL THAT CAME WITH YOUR CAMERA! AFTER ALL, YOU NEED TO GO TO THE CANON WEBSITE ANYWAY TO GET FIRMWARE UPDATES.--------------------------------------------------------First thing you should know is, yes this is compatible with the Canon EOS Rebel T4i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 18-135mm EF-S IS STM Lens and probably with the Canon EOS Rebel T5i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital SLR with 18-135mm EF-S IS STM Lens as well since it literally the same camera. I was looking all over to find out if it was compatible, on Canon's website, in product reviews, in Google searches, but didn't find anything confirming absolutely that it's compatible--until after I bought it and found this information somewhere in the user manual. In any case, it works despite my model of camera not being listed in the product description.Most of all, it's nice to finally be in front of the camera for group shots and such without having to press the shutter button and then rush to a reserved spot in the crowd. It was also extremely helpful in making a new headshot for use in online profiles such as Monster, LinkedIn, Indeed and the like. Before this I had to rely on the photography skils of others taking just a few shots which never came out as I wanted them to.With the flip out screen of the Canon T4i I've been able to see myself in Live View, take multiple headshots myself, and then choose from the best of them. This wouldn't work nearly as well if I were simply using the timer setting.There is even a switch on the back to change between immediate shutter and two second delay--so that you can hit the button and get the remote out of site for the photo.It also works in Bulb Mode as well for shots such as Astrophotography and Fireworks, so you can enjoy the view and get the shots you really want to get without having to be tied to the camera. The remote works even at fifteen feet away or more.Since it's an infrared transmitter, it does not work from behind the camera--because the sensor is on the front of the camera--but otherwise it works as well as a wired trigger.Bottom Line: It's a wonderful tool to have, and the price is right. I recommend anyone with a compatible camera get one.----------------------------------------------------AS OF NOVEMBER 21, 2013, CANON LISTS THE FOLLOWING CAMERAS AS BEING COMPATIBLE WITH THE RC-6 REMOTE:-- Digital Rebel XSi-- Digital Rebel XTi-- ELPH Sport-- EOS 5D Mark III Body-- EOS 5D Mark III Body Refurbished-- EOS 5D Mark III EF 24-105mm IS Lens Kit-- EOS 5D Mark III EF 24-70mm F4L IS Lens Kit-- EOS 60D Body-- EOS 60D Body Refurbished-- EOS 60D EF-S 18-135mm IS Lens Kit-- EOS 60D EF-S 18-135mm IS Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS 60D EF-S 18-200mm IS Lens Kit-- EOS 60Da Body-- EOS 60Da Body Refurbished-- EOS 6D Body-- EOS 6D Body Refurbished-- EOS 6D EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM Lens Kit-- EOS 70D EF-S 18-135mm IS STM Kit-- EOS 70D EF-S 18-55mm IS STM Kit-- EOS 7D Body-- EOS 7D EF 28-135mm IS Lens Kit-- EOS 7D EF-S 18-135mm IS Lens Kit-- EOS Digital Rebel-- EOS Digital Rebel XT-- EOS Digital Rebel XT Black with EF-S 18-55 Lens Refurbished-- EOS Digital Rebel XT Silver with EF-S 18-55 Lens Refurbished-- EOS Digital Rebel XTi with EF-S 18-55 Lens Refurbished-- EOS ELAN 7 / 7E-- EOS ELAN 7N-- EOS ELAN II-- EOS ELAN IIE-- EOS M Black EF-M 18-55mm IS STM Kit-- EOS M Black EF-M 22mm STM Lens Kit-- EOS M White EF-M 22mm STM Lens Kit-- EOS Rebel SL1 Body-- EOS Rebel SL1 EF-S 18-55mm IS STM Kit-- EOS Rebel T1i (Body)-- EOS Rebel T1i Body Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T1i EF-S 18-55mm IS Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T1i with EF-S 18-55mm IS-- EOS Rebel T2-- EOS Rebel T2i Body-- EOS Rebel T2i Body Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T2i EF-S 18-55mm IS II Lens Kit-- EOS Rebel T2i EF-S 18-55mm IS Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T3i Body-- EOS Rebel T3i Body Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T3i EF-S 18-55mm IS II Lens Kit-- EOS Rebel T3i EF-S 18-55mm IS II Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T4i 18-135mm IS STM Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T4i 18-55mm IS II Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T4i Body-- EOS Rebel T4i Body Refurbished-- EOS Rebel T4i EF-S 18-135mm IS STM Lens Kit-- EOS Rebel T4i EF-S 18-55mm IS II Lens Kit-- EOS Rebel T5i 18-55mm IS STM Lens Kit-- EOS Rebel T5i Body-- EOS Rebel T5i EF-S 18-135mm IS STM Lens Kit-- EOS Rebel TI-- EOS Rebel XSi Body Refurbished-- EOS Rebel XSi EF-S 18-55mm IS Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS Rebel XSi Silver Body Refurbished-- EOS SL1 18-55 IS STM Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS SL1 Body Refurbished-- EOS T5i 18-135mm IS STM Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS T5i 18-55mm IS STM Lens Kit Refurbished-- EOS T5i Body Refurbished

Very Versatile in a Small Package

This remote offers a lot of versatility for a great price in a small package. First off, it works with "Bulb" mode which is great for certain applications (see photo in images). Many other remotes I came across did not offer this. It also allows you to change a 2 second shutter delay or instantaneous. The nice thing about this is that some other canon remotes only offer a 2 second shutter delay. This is great if you are in the shot and need to hide the remote out of view. But I also use the remote when I have my camera set up for tripod shots where you don't want to touch the camera in order to reduce camera shake (fireworks, macro shots, landscapes, etc). When I am using these applications I don't want to wait 2 seconds for the shutter. This offers both options which is great. The remote is also very compact, easy to slip in your pocket, or into the front accessory pocket of your bag for easy accessibility.This remote also works for starting and stopping video which is a nice addition with cameras such as the Canon EOS 7D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with 3-inch LCD (Body Only), Canon EOS 60D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with 3.0-Inch LCD (Body Only), or Canon EOS Rebel T3i 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera and DIGIC 4 Imaging with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens.As far as the inability to use this from behind the camera and others lowering their rating because of this, I was aware that it would not work from behind and it was something I was willing to deal with. Your IR receiver is in the front of the camera. This is not a fault of the remote, just how it works.Side note:For the customers that mentioned this not working with their camera, or anyone who is unsure. Go to the Canon USA website > Consumer and Home Office > Products > Cameras. Select your camera (if available) > Supplies & Accessories. Under the sub-section remotes, you will see the remotes that are compatible with your camera.EDIT: I have edited my review and docked one star after a recent experience with the camera. If you use this remote outdoors in sunlight, and especially in shaded areas with light breaking through (ie under trees). My recent experience ended up in quite a bit of frustration for family portraits (which included myself). I could not get the camera to fire from more than 6 feet away with this remote. Which is much less than the 16 foot range it advertises. Otherwise still a great remote.

it works!

I gave my dad my old Canon 7D and he wanted a remote shutter. There's a bunch of these online and the Canon one costs about $10 to $15 more. We tried it and it works well. Not bothered by the direct line of sight. We used the 2 second delay option. point, press and pose.

Easier than using my phone.

It took a bit to find the menu settings but it finally worked perfectly. As a bonus, it also works with my old Elan 7ne.
