Comments about RPS Lighting RTS Adapter for RS-RT06 Wireless Digital Shutter Release (Canon 3-pin):
I needed a way to use an extension for my remote release. I tried a wireless version, but it failed a short time later. I had a Canon Remote Release and never had issues with it, but it was too short. The solution was this connector which allowed me to connect a Canon RS60-E3 with a mini to 1/4 adapter along with a 6' extension cord. Works like a charm. The low cost meant that I bought two in case I tear one up.

Comments about RPS Lighting RTS Adapter for RS-RT06 Wireless Digital Shutter Release (Canon 3-pin):
I bought this adapter for my RS-RT06 shutter release. When I had originally purchased the shutter release, I owned a Digital Rebel. Now, when I've upgraded to a 7D, I can still use the same shutter release, thanks to the easy-to-use adapter arrangement. What a great idea to save the customer money! I had always been very happy with the shutter release, and now that I have this adapter, I won't have to switch. It works as great as it always did with the Rebel; no problems at all. I will definitely recommend this product for ease of use, and also because I can use it with more than one type of attachment.

Works fine. The problems I had was from a mini connector.Please note- The cord must be plugged in the camera fully. Plug it in & then push a bit more.

Comments about RPS Lighting RTS Adapter for RS-RT06 Wireless Digital Shutter Release (Canon 3-pin):
I just upgraded to the Canon 5D Mark II. Prior to upgrading, I had been using the Canon Rebel EOS XTi. I had been using a Vivitar wireless remote shutter release with the XTi. I discovered the Vivitar would not work with the 5D. Options were to buy a completely new remote or see if there was a new connector. Rather than shelling out a lot of money for a duplicate remote, I only has to spend the [$] for the cable. It works and I am quite happy not to have any more extra junk to tote around. The one downside is that it uses a female 3.5mm stereo jack while the Vivitar release is a 2.5mm stereo jack. A quick trip to RadioShack purchasing a $2 adapter solved that problem. The release works like a charm.

I have an old Canon RS-80E3 (2.5mm stereo jack), which doesn't work with my Canon EOS 5D Mark II (N3 terminal). So, I bought this and a 2.5mm (F) to 3.5mm (M) stereo converter, hooked them together and it works! No splicing, no dicing!
The only minor drawback is that the connector is plastic, however it does hold tight.

I had a shutter release cable that went to my Rebel XTi which used a 2.5 mini. My 7D uses a 3 prong (exactily like the 5D). Instead of buying another shutter release, I was able to use this cost effective adapter and now I have a shutter release for 2 bodies. Works every time!

With this adapter I was able to make my own remote shutter release for bulb mode on my 5D using about $10 worth of parts from [...]. If you can't afford the real thing, this has you covered for a fraction of the cost. There are multiple tutorials online, but it is straightforward to figure out on your own. An excellent weekend project!The only problem I have with the adapter is that, sometimes, it is a little difficult to put in the camera. However, I do like that it doesn't pop out afterwards and takes some doing to remove.
