Customer feedback:

1. I just got this remote control a few days back, and so far I am pretty satisfied with it. The shipment was prompt and it arrived even faster than some of the Amazon's own products. I am using it with Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi. I chose it over some alternative products due to its compact size, and that comes in handy when lugging around a whole bunch of camera add-ons.
Since it seems that a lot of people are having problems with the instructions that came with this item, I decided to post a simple set-up procedure that worked for me:
- Turn on the camera.
- Press the "Drive mode" menu button. This is the same button as the left arrow on my camera.
- Toggle between different setting using left and right arrow.
- Make sure that the "Self-timer/Remote control" option is highlighted.
- Press set button.
- You are ready to roll. Point the remote to the camera (from the front of the camera) and press either the upper "S" (for immediate shooting) or "2S" (for 2s delayed shooting) buttons.

2. The remote is handy, small and it does what it is supposed to do. It looks quite good I might say and I am very happy I took this instead of canon original. For this kind of simple products (not high-tech) it is not worth paying for the brand. After setting the camera in the "remote mode" then press S/2S and you'll get the picture.
