Works great in a small range of situations 
2008-08-02
This remote works well in front of the camera, if you're working with a subject. However, If you want to use it BEHIND the camera, forget it. The product description "forgot" to mention that fact. This product is not a replacement for a cable remote, but can be used as a companion in certain circumstances.
Not too shabby 
2008-08-01
Once I figured out that I had to hold the remote off to the side and to the left of the camera (facing me) in order to get it to work, it worked fine. Might have been nice if the instructions included that little tidbit of helpful info, since I thought the thing was broken when I tried to use it with my right hand and it only worked one out of 10 times.
Nice Gadget.

In order to avoid camera shake in certain photo situations (macro photography, fireworks, etc.), it is important to have a wireless remote, or other typs of shutter release. The Canon RC1 does a great job at a good price. The only drawback, is that the remote must be fired from in front, or to the side of the camera. Generally this is not an issue. I also like the fact that it can be stored right on your camera strap, so it is easily accessible.

This produce does exactly what it claims. I have attached it to my lanyard and have it ready at all times.
It's is a good deal!! 2008-07-26

Works well, need line of sight 2008-08-06
This little remote works exactly as intended. There is a small switch that will allow you to take photos instantly or with a 2 second delay. You can also turn it off completely. It comes with a small button cell battery that has worked for 4 months without showing signs of stopping. The remote comes with a little plastic platform that you can hook onto the strap of your camera, and then the remote can be snapped onto that platform or taken off easily. It's not flimsy and stays on that platform securely when you're not using it.
However, you need line of sight for this remote. The remote sensor is at the front of your camera, so that means that you need to point the remote at the front. If you're behind the camera, you have to move your hand around to the front and point it like that. So although this is a wireless remote, it's a laser-beam type remote, not a radio frequency remote. This is the only reason that I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. Overall, I'm very pleased with this item.
Batteries dead... 
2008-08-06
Can't say if this works or not, as it was delivered with dead batteries... :-( Or at least I presume it's the batteries, and that the *whole thing* isn't dead. I'll come back and report once I've gone out and bought new batteries. Snif. Expected better from Amazon.
Do not buy 2008-08-04
Im 30 but I put underage so my name can be anonymous.
This was a gift, but it does not work, it was delivered damaged and they did not give me another one.
nice gadget 2008-08-02
It works what suppose to be. But I need to be infront of camera within about 20 degree viewing angles and within about 20 feet. I no longer need to run to get my self in the picture like in old timer.
