Canon Remote Control RC-6 for EOS 500D/550D

The Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote is a must-have tiny infrared wireless remote controller for compatible Canon EOS DSLRs including the following:

• Digital Rebel T2i 550D
• Digital Rebel T1i 500D
• Digital Rebel XSi 450D
• Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi 400D
• Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT 350D
• Canon EOS Digital Rebel 300D
• Canon EOS 7D
• Canon EOS 5D Mark II

Measuring only .25″ x 1.25 x 2.5″ (6.5 x 32 x 63.5mm), the Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote easily fits in even a small pocket.

Unlike the Canon RC-5 Wireless Remote, the RC-6 will operate in either 2-second delay mode or will instantly take a shot (like the Canon RC-1 Wireless Remote).

Point the Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote toward the front of the camera (line of sight only) within 16′ (5m) and take the shot when you are ready. Or use it to start a video.

Using a wireless remote release eliminates camera motion related to pressing the shutter release – and allows you to be a subject in your photo. Being able to stay near your subject to assist in composition (or ease stress) is another benefit.

The Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote is powered by 2 CR2032 Lithium button batteries rated for about 6,000 transmissions. The Canon RC-6 Wireless Remote is a very useful device – and having no cord is great. You can even put it on your key ring.
