Works great for a great price!

I had no desire to spend nearly $400 on the Canon wireless remote, but I was skeptical about the 3rd party options, especially because the price difference was so huge. But I took the leap based on the good reviews of the Satechi remote, and I'm glad I did. Works great and does everything I need. The plug is secure when seated properly, though as one reviewer noted, the blue light when it fires is pretty bright (and easily addressed with electrical tape or a pouch). This can actually be used as both a wired or wireless remote, and in fact, for bulb mode, it must be used wired using the receiver. That's probably my only quibble with it: I wish it could be used wirelessly for bulb mode, but it hasn't been a huge deal that I couldn't. I've used this for long exposure (10-20 minutes) night shots and shorter exposure moon shots where I wanted to make absolutely certain there was no camera shake. The remote has worked flawlessly every time.

working 3rd party wireless remote for 30D

The Satechi WR-A100 works as advertised with my Canon 30D. The button on the receiver doubles as a wired shutter release and halfway-pressed focus button. The buttons on the transmitter provide focus and shutter release control as if on the camera itself. My use is primarily for taking photos of birds in my backyard at distances of 90-120 feet from transmitter to receiver/camera. Unlike IR remotes, lining up transmitter and receiver is unnecessary. I have not tested the set-up to see what is the maximum working distance, but I have had success up to about 150 feet. When the shutter fires, the receiver flashes a small green light, which confirms success, but is probably not visible beyond 120-150 feet in bright daylight for the average eye. Re-charging the receiver on the day of use is advisable as battery "trickle" drain does occur when it is not used for several days. I have not had a problem with "same day" battery drain. The AC adapter for re-charging is small (not one of those two pound blocks) and easy to carry on trips. I use a small, flat, soft pouch with a zipper for the whole package. The transmitter uses button type batteries, which have good life spans. I am thus far very pleased with this much more affordable alternative to the Canon brand wireless remote.

Why pay more?

Works great as corded or wireless remote. Don't know why anyone would pay for models that are hundreds of dollars. One weakness: I would like to see a built-in way of connecting the components together for storage, and a way of connecting the receiver to a camera strap.






Good price

It works as described with the price tag much lower than the canon brand one. And you have the wireless one which canon does not offer for their 20d/30d, 40d line. (The Rebel line has it)
