Canon remote rc6 any disadvantages ?

[taxboy]

Just looking at this as an alternative to the standard cabled release which I always seem to get tangled in. As per the title are there any disadvantages to the ir release?

All input appreciated

as the camera sensor is on the front you will find you cannot use it from behind the camera your better of getting a wireless trigger.
Here is a canon one https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/5fn/Yong...coding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=NRYBY79E20N8XK3SQR54

Yes - you have to be at the front - they are cheap though - be careful there's lots of Canon copy products on that one... Not that it matters a lot - it'll still work... Definitely has its uses for the price...
