Wireless remote for 350D?

[vii_haven]

what are the available wireless remote options for the 350D? i've only seen the original canon one so far and i believe that one is wired.

If u go thru' your 350D's instruction manual, there are actually 2 wireless remote controls for this camera - RC-1 and RC-5. The RC-1 can trip the shutter immediately or after a 2-sec delay, and the RC-5 trips the shutter after a 2-sec delay. There is also another model which trips the shutter after a 2-sec delay. This one is similar to the RC-5 but looks slimmer and can be hooked onto your camera strap with an easy release button when u need to use it. If u want to buy it, there is a forumer selling it in the "Consumers' Corner". I don't know whether he still has the stock. U can try to PM him if u are interested.

I'm using the RC1. Compared to other Canon dSLRs the 350D has the most no. of compatible wireless remotes so I don't see why you have any trouble finding 1... PPCP has one as well if I'm not mistaken.

Yup I just checked... PPCP has 1 listed, so my advice :
There are so many to choose from!!

I am using the thrid party one from China. It works as RC1. Also has 2/10 secs delay

Just an update here. I bought the remote from PPCP and it's working wonderfully well. Its 13bucks and it has both the instant shutter release and another button for the 2sec delayed release. And it's made in Japan (or at least the word japan is molded into the back cover of the remote). I'm very pleased with it. =) now to get a mini tripod. any recommendations?

Hi there, I have actually the ones which u had mentioned to be able to be hooked onto the straps... however, mine doesn't seemed to fit. Do u have any pic of how it should hook in?

Are u using the original strap? Actually, it's quite simle. At the back of the remote holder, there are two loops. Remove one side of your strap from the camera and pass the strap thru' the two loops before hooking the strap back to the camera.

I am using NoviiRemote in my XDA, it works fine except IR distance about 2m. I tested on IPAQ can goes slightly close to 4m.

i'm using RC5. But something i notice is tat if you use tele-lens (e.g 75-300mm) the camera is juz too far to be controled. There is the limit of the distance
