4 Stars Best thing I’ve bought for $10 in a long time
It does what I was hoping it would do. Range is about 15-18 feet. What more do you want for ten bucks?

2 Stars Good if used on very short distance.
I used it while I was camping. I didn’t have any problem to set it up but i was surprised about how short the distance between the remote and the camera must be to be able to control the shot. And you must be just in front so It took me some acrobatics movement to be able to take some shoots during our fire-camp. Other than that it’s a great little remote, very light but just not what i need.

5 Stars Works great, awesome price
This wireless remote works great. Some people complain about the distance, but the technical details clearly states up to 16ft working distance, which is plenty for my needs. I love this wireless remote and the fact that I am finally in some of my own pictures. I look forward to doing self-portraits. Definitely worth getting.

5 Stars Opteka Remote for my CANON XSI
This remote is amazing, and it’s easy to set your camera up to use it. I love it… Been taking family photos like Crazy…. And it was a great price, and fast shipping.. What more could I ask for…

5 Stars Not as small as the Canon branded remote, but works just as well for less $
The remote works just fine, range as expected. Only downside to choosing this remote over the canon branded one is that the canon one is a lot smaller and will attach to your neck strap. I gave it 5 stars because it is 1/3-1/2 the price of the canon remote.

5 Stars Works exactly as I expected
I bought this remote to use for long exposures with my D60. It has one button which does exactly what you’d expect — opens and/or closes the shutter. Two minutes after I opened the package I was taking my first test shots, and that was only because I had to find the right settings on my camera. As some other reviews have pointed out, the remote has to be in line of sight with your camera’s sensor in order to work, but that is no great inconvenience for my needs.

5 Stars Great remote
Hi I have been taking pics for about 5 months now with a nikon D60, and just bought this remote and the first one they send was not working, but i simply requested a new one and the next day had one in my house and was working good, return service was perfect no problem at all…happy with the remote, go and get it for fun pics…

5 Stars Love it!
I bought this because it is so hard to get babies to laugh when they can’t see you…they will just stare at the camera and that’s about it. With this remote I just frame the shot and then go play with my son…when he smiles or starts laughing I just click the remote and I have the shot. Try doing that with a point and shoot digicam!

5 Stars This thing is AWESOME!!!
I love this little remote. It has come in very handy while my hubby is deployed I don’t like the fact that the camera doesn’t save the setting to use the remote, but that’s not this product’s fault lol. Very Happy with my purchase!

5 Stars Simple to use, does as it states
I use this with my D60 and within a few seconds I had things working great. Turned the camera to accept the remote and I was away. I have not had an issue yet with distance. I plan to use it more and more for the “family” pictures. Also looking at doing some stop motion. No longer I fall to the touching and slight shifting of the camera. The remote takes care of it.

3 Stars Opteka RC6 Remote
this product is pretty easy to use. took me some time to understand the instructions on what “command dial” was. LOL but otherwise, this is a good product.

5 Stars Works as well as the Olympus Remote
What a genius bit of OEM product at a great price. Don’t spend money on the Oly RM-1, this is less than half the price and does the job as well as the Oly unit.

5 Stars perfect gadget for steady shots
This serves it purpose pretty good. But I am not sure if the +/- button and the other two button work. They sure dont on my E500. But the shutter works so I am good.

5 Stars Great little remote for my Olympus E-500
I read all the Amazon product reviews prior to buying this item, so I knew about the poor (almost incomprehensible) setup instructions. I was able to use my camera’s operators manual to figure it all out. Once I understood the remote setup, everything has worked flawlessly. I highly recommend this unit to people who respect their equipment. The unit is not built ruggedly, so care is important. That said, it should provide you with years of use. Go Amazon!

5 Stars remote works great with my Revolt 520 Olympus
Found this to work great with my new camera. Camera’s instructions were easier to use than the instructions with product. Great success!
