Remote control Canon RC-5

Friday, September 12th, 2008

This is my new toy purchased this morning, a remote control for my Canon EOS 400D, the RC-5.

My first impression was pretty good, is very small (see image), comes with a battery and the shot angle is 360º, at least at a distance of 1m.

The price is 18-21 EUR, so it’s cheap and a must-have for every photographer!

If you have a Canon Digital camera, you can display thumbnails of your RAW shots in Windows XP or Vista with the Canon RAW Codec

You can download the codec for free at the Canon website

At the moment there is not a compatible version for 64 bit Vista, but you can download the codec for almost all EOS and PowerShoot models, simply install, reboot, and you will see thumbnails of your RAW files in the Windows explorer.
