FS: 3 Canon E1 Handstraps & 4 Wireless Remotes (US)

TeamSpeed

1) I have 3 brand-new E1 handstraps for sale, $22 shipped in the US.

Directions for installation usually come with your grip, but I also have a photocopy of the directions at this link as well.

2) I have 2 Phottix brand-new Plato 2.4ghz shutter remotes for sale for the N3 connector (all Canon models except the Rebel line). These also double as wired remotes, and you can also purchase cables in the future to use on Nikons or Rebels. They use AAA batteries (2 each) also, making for easy battery replacements, or a perfect use for those Eneloops.

Asking $40 shipped and paypaled

3) I also have 1 brand-new remote for the Canons utilizing the stereo plug connectors (Rebel line). Same capabilities as I described above.

Asking $39 shipped and paypaled

It is the same thing that you can find from Ebay, except this is less expensive and ships from the US.

Sorry, wrong forum, I have self-reported myself, hopefully this can be moved to kitchen sink or canon. :hide

Will the wireless remotes work fine with a 50D to trigger the shutter? Sorry, I've never used a remote before but I can see where it would be useful...

Yes, you hook the receiver to your flash shoe (just for aesthetics, you can just let it hang, or put velcro on it and on your tripod so it doesn't hang loose), but the cable that comes out of the receiver plugs into your N3 connector on the side of the 50D. You then turn on the receiver and the transmitter, they will sync up, and you can then choose which mode you want on the transmitter (normal click and get a shot, 2 sec delay, 5 frame slow burst, or bulb).

What makes these nice is that the transmitter lets you know if it sees the receiver, so you know when you are out of range. Also these use AAA batteries vs the strange batteries the older models used.

I do not know that much about the current model but please see this thread http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=97456 for the story of the one I got from TeamSpeed in October 2007. I know it is an earlier model but I was very happy with the way TeamSpeed handled his end of the transaction. I am still getting excellent service from the remote (used on an antique Canon D60 which uses the same connection as the current xxD series). Will admit that use is very intermittent (which is the main reason I went with an after market brand rather than the very expensive Canon remote)

I do know that one of the things that attracted me to the model I bought is that the on/off switches are the sliding type rather than push to turn on or off. I had problems with a different brand with push type switches turning up with a dead battery after being left in camera bag and probably hitting other equipment. That has not happened to me with the sliding type switches.

Hi Jane,

That brings back memories! Thank you for the reference.

Phottix keeps refining these remotes and now with interchangeable cords, you can just change over to Nikon or buy a Rebel or other Canon and still use the remote on those bodies by just buying the other cables.

Glad yours is going strong!

1 of each left at this point, thanks for looking!
