5 Stars Great camera for the money
I’ve had the camera for about a month and have taken several hundred photos in different environments (outdoor, indoor and action). It does a great job in all areas and the battery life is super… charged it the day I got it and have yet to have to recharge it. The only issue with the camera is either the memory card that I bought or the camera itself… it seems to get hung up sometimes when reviewing photos and sometimes when taking a picture it gets a glitch so you have to shut the camera off and take the memory card out and put it back in, then everything is fine. Great camera for the money!!! If you buy an extra lens for it spend the $400 for the better Canon lens as the $275 (55-275) telephoto I bought doesn’t give as clear of picture as the lens that came with the camera.
5 Stars Canon XSi
This camera is a great camera for DSLR beginners. It is very easy to use and takes very good pictures.
4 Stars Awesome camera kit, nice job Canon!!
I’m very satisfied with this camera. I’m a fine art painter and digital concept artist so I take tons of reference images. It offers all I need for now, i’ll upgrade to a higher end Canon or Nikon when I get the dough.
PROS
great image quality
accurate color
nice functions
large preview screen
lightweight for a digital SLR
good value EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens, images are clear and crisp
CONS
ISO speed only goes to 1600, not very ideal for night photography
Zoom with the EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens isn’t that great
5 Stars Great Buy – Trust Amazon !
Purchase for my 16 yr old – living out of state – needed the camera faster than the expected ship date, I sent the email saying I needed it, it came the next day. The camera is better than I expected. the service great. I paid hundreds more for my D-SLR and it was a lesser version – This is a good buy
5 Stars Great camera, but never received from Amazon
Well, I originally ordered the camera through Amazon on the 11th of Sept., it was scheduled for delivery on the 22nd. October 2nd comes and still without the unit, carrier (USPS) showed item was in “arrival scan” status at a location the whole time. Contacted Amazon to cancel order and refund, it’s now the 12th of Oct. and still no camera or refund on account. I ended up ordering the camera from n*w*gg for about $50 cheaper, just so happens they had a promo going on, 10% off all DSLR’s.
My rating above is not for the service, but for the camera.
On to the product, I love the camera so far. I am just getting into photos, so my photo skills are not quite up to par. Using this camera makes taking photos a snap and they come out great. Quick response to capture those precious moments of your first child.

5 Stars A great accessory for any photographer!
I was disappointed when I bought my Canon Rebel XS to find that it not only didn’t come with a wireless remote, but that it wasn’t compatible with the same wireless IR remote that its higher-end relative, the XSi, was.
After looking into remotes, I saw that I had two options; either buy an expensive wireless one that was compatible with the XS, or get this non-wireless remote switch for much cheaper (less than $25). I am glad I got this!
YES, IT’S WIRED, BUT IT’S STILL GOOD
Yes, this might seem an unappealing choice to some due to the fact that it’s wired – and some have complained that the wire is too short – but from my experiences so far, I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with this simple and easy-to-use remote.
GREAT CHOICE FOR NIGHTTIME PHOTOGRAPHY
This is a great choice for nighttime photography, and I can’t stress that enough. Even if you have relatively steady hands, you will find that using a remote is essential to consistently capturing crisp images. Even when my DSLR was on a tripod, holding down the shutter button would cause enough shake to blur images (especially in Bulb mode). This has given me some amazing nighttime shots…
OPERATION
Holding down the shutter button halfway will focus the camera, and pressing down all the way will take the picture. With Bulb mode, you can press down and then slide the button to a ‘lock’ position, which will in turn keep the shutter pressed until you release it from the lock.
THE PRICE IS NICE…
I took the money I saved from buying this less expensive alternative, and invested it towards a lens. If you aren’t happy with this purchase, you can be happy you only shelled out $25 – especially considering how expensive most SLR accessories are…
CONCLUSIONS
Regardless of one’s photographic background, a remote switch is essential – especially for nighttime photography! At $25, this switch is a steal.
3 Stars money for nothing chicks for free…so goes the song
Well the first part of the title for this product is true $25 for this is a rip off.It is the size of a bic lighter and about a well made, for this it gets three stars max. I have not used it yet but even if it works $25 for this? I was forworned by other reviewers but I was to gun shy to make my own, their are many post on the www on how to do it your self and save some coin you can put towards one of their $1,500 len.
So this is another one of those situations where canon rips you off.
so it goes, you need a cable release if you use a tripod.
PS chicks are never free…. ever
5 Stars It does the job
When I opened the box, I realized how small the remote control is. I guess good things do come in small packages. =)
I tested this accessory and it works as advertised — half shutter, full shutter, shutter lock, and winding the cord for storage. I haven’t been it for any serious work within these first few days of having it. While the remote is kind of expensive for its function, it’s quite inexpensive compared to other DSLR accessories — particularly lenses. =P
I anticipate to use this for bulb mode shooting, e.g. to shoot fireworks. I also anticipate to use this to help portrait subjects relax, as suggested by another reviewer.
I’d like to also note that the Opteka remote is just a few dollars cheaper than the Canon cord, but I decided to get this one because I like the Canon brand, and this one looks much nicer.
5 Stars Great little device
This allows you to take pictures and release the shutter without having to touch your camera. This helps eliminate vibrations and shaking, allowing for great pictures, even with longer exposures. It was a good price, is very simple to use, is small and easy to carry and is exactly what I needed.
4 Stars A great little remote control for the Powershot G10
The more I use my Powershot G10 on tripods or try to do long exposures, the more I realize that when my finger presses down on the shutter, it slightly vibrates the camera and I get a slightly blurry exposure. Well, after untold numbers of photos and me scratching my head like an idiot, I decided to get a remote switch.
The remote switch works fine as advertised for the Powershot G10 and works on the Rebel series digital SLRs as well (XT, XTi, etc). And this being a Canon accessory, you’d better believe you pay more than you should for the Canon brand. The cord isn’t that long, but can easily be extended with a trip to Radio Shack and for $10 (Google “rs60-e3 extension”.)
