I currently own a Canon Rebel XSi. I did a small research on remote shutters before deciding on the Aputure Pro Coworker Remote Shutter. I ultimately chose this remote for its use of RF radio frequency over infrared by Canon’s RC1 and RC5. I was able to leave my camera in one room and walk over 50ft away, and while pressing through 2 walls still getting instant triggering.
Some things to note: if you insert the transmitter in to the hot shoe slot, the pop-up sparkle is disabled. No biggie just let it dangle or wrap it around the camera/lense in some way if you are need of the sparkle. Also, this remote does not demand you to change the drive mode to “Self-timer/Remote control.” Whatever drive mode you set your camera for, is what will be used if you leave the remote trigger on continuous shutter release.

I have NO issues with the operation or quality of this accessory. I ordered it with my fingers crossed and was not dissapointed.
One design issue, there are two modes of operation on the transmitter – instant/bulb and self timer mode. The self timer mode seems a little un-needed as this RF release has a good half-press feel and provides vibration free no-contact release. An additional 5-sec delay seems useless unless… you want to be in the pictures yourself and want 5 seconds to stash the transmitter out of sight before the shutter releases? The Instant/Bulb mode: half press then full press to instantly release shutter. You activate the Bulb mode by pressing and holding the shutter release button on the transmitter for >3 seconds. The Red LED on the transmitter will go out, the red LED on the receiver will stay on – deactivate bulb mode by pressing button again.
I wish the switch had Instant/Bulb and OFF positions instead. That’s right there is no OFF position for the transmitter. I opened camera bag to find that something had managed to push the buttton in while stored, sloppy me – no biggie, battery seems to last a long time.
This works well with my Canon G11. I do a lot of night photography and HDR. When I have my camera on the tripod and wireless release in my hand I feel like an ancient time photographer working with the modern day equivalent of a field camera on sticks – air bulb release in hand…
