## Description

This Premium Grade Shutter Cable Release allows auto-focusing, shutter release, B-stop, and T-stop functions.

Review: Works well, good price - I purchased this cable after already having a wireless shutter release cable. The wireless is nice, but I end up attaching a unit to the camera that takes batteries and then I have a separate remote that has batteries. Sometimes I just don't want to check and carry spares for anything more than my camera and flashes which is why I purchased this. I had another wired shutter release before but it stopped working. It always felt cheap so I guess it was just a matter of time before it gave out on me. This one seems to have a better build quality. This shutter release is very light, requires no batteries and just works well. I've used a number of times and it seems durable. The cable is long enough for when I am behind the camera but if I want to be in a photo, I still use the wireless unit.
Review: Works Great!! - I have a Canon 5D and it doesn't have an infrared sensor. I've been searching high and low for a good, reasonable priced cable trigger for this camera for years. I've tried others that fail to last. Either the plug breaks easily or the button quits working within a few uses. This one is holding up quite well. The shutter release action is very smooth and responds as soon as I use the button. The actual product seems to be well pieced together, not a lot of places the button could jam. Very good product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Just Fine
*by D***N on July 23, 2012*

Purchased this cable release on a whim at the same time I bought my new Canon 7D. I'd been meaning to pick up a release for a while, but had been choking on the price tag for a Canon-branded one. Figured this couldn't be too bad for the price, so I tossed it onto an existing order and hoped for the best. Overall, the construction feels a little "cheap", in that the button is rather squishy and the slide-to-lock binds a little bit on mine (I would call the feel "inexpensive imported plastic" overall), but functionality is 100% perfect. I have shot approximately 900 frames with the release now, predominantly using it to ontrol my 7D in bulb mode for fireworks and lightning shots, with a smattering of portrait and low-light macro shooting in the mix. I am quite pleased with it, and for the price I paid I am quite satisfied. If it were to fail on me at some point now, I would most likely purchase another. Is it as finely built as the OEM product? Not even close. Does it work? Flawlessly. UPDATE - 11/13/14: I now have some thousands of shots taken with this, and it is still working well. The binding in the slide-to-lock appears to have gone away with time and use, it's decently smooth now. Two years and a bit in, still going strong!
