I've been using the Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote Controller since 2012, and it has been an invaluable accessory for my photography needs.
The convenience of this wireless remote cannot be overstated. Whether I'm capturing self-portraits, group shots, or long-exposure images, the RC-6 allows me to trigger my Canon camera's shutter from a distance with ease. This eliminates the need for awkward self-timers or relying on someone else to press the shutter button for me.
The compact design of the RC-6 makes it easy to carry around in my camera bag, ensuring that I always have it on hand when I need it. The responsive button and reliable wireless connectivity have consistently delivered seamless performance, allowing me to capture the perfect shot without any hassle.
What's truly impressive is the longevity of this remote controller. Despite being purchased nearly a decade ago, it continues to work flawlessly in 2024. It's a testament to Canon's commitment to quality and durability.
Overall, I highly recommend the Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote Controller to any Canon camera owner looking for a convenient and reliable way to remotely trigger their camera's shutter. It's a must-have accessory that has greatly enhanced my photography experience over the years.

Very Versatile in a Small Package
This remote offers a lot of versatility for a great price in a small package. First off, it works with "Bulb" mode which is great for certain applications (see photo in images). Many other remotes I came across did not offer this. It also allows you to change a 2 second shutter delay or instantaneous. The nice thing about this is that some other canon remotes only offer a 2 second shutter delay. This is great if you are in the shot and need to hide the remote out of view. But I also use the remote when I have my camera set up for tripod shots where you don't want to touch the camera in order to reduce camera shake (fireworks, macro shots, landscapes, etc). When I am using these applications I don't want to wait 2 seconds for the shutter. This offers both options which is great. The remote is also very compact, easy to slip in your pocket, or into the front accessory pocket of your bag for easy accessibility.This remote also works for starting and stopping video which is a nice addition with cameras such as the Canon EOS 7D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with 3-inch LCD (Body Only), Canon EOS 60D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with 3.0-Inch LCD (Body Only), or Canon EOS Rebel T3i 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera and DIGIC 4 Imaging with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens.As far as the inability to use this from behind the camera and others lowering their rating because of this, I was aware that it would not work from behind and it was something I was willing to deal with. Your IR receiver is in the front of the camera. This is not a fault of the remote, just how it works.Side note:For the customers that mentioned this not working with their camera, or anyone who is unsure. Go to the Canon USA website > Consumer and Home Office > Products > Cameras. Select your camera (if available) > Supplies & Accessories. Under the sub-section remotes, you will see the remotes that are compatible with your camera.EDIT: I have edited my review and docked one star after a recent experience with the camera. If you use this remote outdoors in sunlight, and especially in shaded areas with light breaking through (ie under trees). My recent experience ended up in quite a bit of frustration for family portraits (which included myself). I could not get the camera to fire from more than 6 feet away with this remote. Which is much less than the 16 foot range it advertises. Otherwise still a great remote.
