Canon Seletor Remoto RS-80N3

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

Light. Simple. Robust. My initial reactions to this product have all been very positive. While the cord length could be longer, I've had no real problem with it. Operates every time without issue and the connection to the camera is solid; won't fall out.

Couldn't be happier. Made a big difference for me. B&H shipped fast and had no issues as per the usual.

The good - You can count on it. I'm elated. I personally bought this to have as a back-up if and I do say IF, I can find a 3rd party wireless version to work with my Canon 5D markii. I've owned a third party wireless remote for my Nikon D90 and I love the functionality and RF remote option. Problem is they are unreliable. The cable is easily pulled out of the control unit and more importantly is thin and breaks inside easily, rendering it only useful if I wiggle it into a good position and hold it steady with my thumb while I use the remote. If it's a lucky day. So it becomes a 50/50 useable item. And that was the good one on the Nikon.The Canon 3 pin connector of the third party wireless remote won't stay attached to my 5D markii. It falls out. So unless I jiggle it into position and press it up against the camera with my thumb for the duration of the shots, it won't release the shutter. It doesn't do anything. It's a neat [$] placebo with good intention. So bracketing with 10 second exposures is useless. And so is a remote if i have to stand there trying to keep still pressing against the camera. I tried one from here and opened one in a store, and they had the same issue. The 3 pin connector is slightly too small, and doesn't hold. So while at the store I looked at this wired version as well as the Vivitar wired version that was $20 or so less. The Vivitar 3-pin all rubber connector did seat snugly in the camera. But the Canon clicked in place. It seemed like a proper solid connection that wouldn't slide and wear over time. The Vivitar still slid in and slid out like rubber does into metal. As well the Canon shutter button seemed better quality in movement and the cable is thick and it appears durable.So since I am on a quest to find a wireless useable option, I wanted a sure thing in my bag for now and as a back-up later. The bad. It costs a third more than the Vivitar. It has only basic useage. No wireless, no remote. And the cable is 30" so you have to use it generally standing by the camera. This doesn't bother me as I use it close to the camera while bracketing. At a distance I prefer wireless. So I'd rather not have it dangling 4 feet from the camera. I do see they sell a $75 extension cable. So I'm considering it as an option to either use with this wired release if I can't find a useable RF remote. Or with the knock-off wireless version and taping or velcroing the connection tight and hanging it off the tripod so I have a useable wireless RF remote.The ugly - IMO there isn't any. You seem to get what you pay for. Try as I continue to with knock-offs. So for me, since in my studio or bag, it's the "sure thing" release, it was worth spending the extra $20 or so for the better quality Canon. Mostly for the snap in connector and the thick cord.+5 for quality (comparably)-1 for functionality and price.

I bought the wrong one last time, so I found out this is the one works for my 7D, it works just fine!!!

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

For macro work, and slow shutter speeds on a tripod, this is a must have accesssory for the Canon 5D. The modern version of the old cable release. Works flawlessly.

a must for Macros or long exposures!

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

A cable release is a must-have accessory for anyone wanting razor sharp images. This Canon remote release is sold at B&H for a little over half what it sells for in my local camera shop. I use it with my 7D whenever I mount it on a tripod. The lock feature allows long exposures and the cable length is sufficient enough to view the image with the rear screen. Over-all, just what I expected at a very good price and rapid delivery. Thanks again to B&H.

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

It works well. I sort of wish the cord was shorter (like 6" or so). It seems like I'm always fishing around trying to find the end. I did wrap it in velcro along with a leg of my tripod so now it's eazier to find it without looking. Seems a bit high priced for what you get. But what doesn't in this hobby?

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

Works Great. It will serve me well over the next years.

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

Considering it's a Canon-branded item, I think the price is right. I do wish the cable was a bit longer and the release a bit smaller – but it does what it's supposed to!

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

No surprises. Works great.

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

Seriously. Whatever kind of photography you do — from architecture to landscapes, portraits, products and more — a remote will help you get sharper pictures and help save your back in the process (no more bending over to squint through the viewfinder).

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

Having just procured an EOS 7 D I needed a reliable remote release and this Canon product didn't disappoint. It is robust and effective and worthy of the Canon name. I just wish they would stick to a single product style as this is different from my release for my 1000D - it isn't rocket science! and would endear customers more!

I am from Canada and ordered this product, along with an LP-E6 battery pack for Canon, an 8Gb extreme compact flash card and a quick-release plate for my Gitzo tripod, from B&H. The products perfectly met my needs and the order processing and delivery service from B&H was excellent, even though my order was of small scale. This is my second very satisfactory experience with B&H. I was able again to see that there is no small client for B&H.

If you use a tripod, you need this in your bag.

Comments about Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3:

Works great. I use it with the camera either in mirror lock or switch the camera into live view, then push the remote release. Like traditional cable releases it tends to slip into shutter lock mode accidentally - a pain. Simply taping a piece of wooden matchstick into the gap to keep the lock from sliding takes care of it, since I never use the locking feature anyway.
