User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Stupid Simple…in a good way
We originally bought this remote to use with our Canon Rebel XTi. It worked well as long as you stayed in front of the camera and in range. (10-15ft) We now use it with a Canon 5D Mark II and get similar results. Very handy to capture photos on vacation with a tripod. We’ve had the remote over a year and the original battery still works. Also love the slim design as it fits in a pocket for easy transport. Can’t beat the price either.

5 Stars Opteka RC-4 for Canon Rebel X1i
I love this unit. It’s inexpensive and works flawlessly with my Canon Rebel X1i. No complaints.

3 Stars Doesn’t work that great with my 7D
After reading all the reviews here I decided to purchase this wireless setup for my 7D. For some reason it only work from about 3ft away. Not sure if it came with a weak battery but I hope I can get it working right.

5 Stars Love this tiny remote
The order arrived faster than I expected. We had it for a couple of weeks now and use it almost every day with my daughter’s Rebel T1i.

I wish there is a dedicated switch or top menu selction on the camera to take the remote signal.

5 Stars Simple…straghtforward. Like it should be
Pretty straightforward remote that works exactly as advertised. Mot much attention has been paid to the look and feel of the item, but that’s the reason of the low price, and it works just fine. Perfect item at a great price. Recommended.

Zeikos ZE FLK58 58mm Multi Coated 3 Piece Filter Kit UV CPL FLD

Zeikos ZE FLK58 58mm Multi Coated 3 Piece Filter Kit UV CPL FLD

Lens filters are translucent pieces of glass placed in front of a camera lens to alter or adjust the light entering the camera, and more importantly to protect the camera lens. Lens filters improve photographs by giving you control over light and allowing you to emphasize the features of a scene that you consider most important.

This filter kit is a combination of the three essential filters no photographer should be without.

PLEASE NOTE: Some cameras require an adapter tube to fit the filters. This filter set is compatible with the following camera models: Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi

User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Excellent product
I’m very happy with the item, the filters mount easily and the polarizer gives excellent polarizing effects.

I couldn’t have asked for a better value for my money !!

4 Stars Helps and hinders
The quality of the optics is OK and does make a noticeable difference in the cameras ability. Polarization is a bit tricky but helpful when needed. You will lose light reception so you have to allow for larger opening or slower speed to make up for it. I did a comparison of a Skylight to the UV and would say that the UV is just a lens protector as I had no noticeable difference in any comparative shots. I did see some better contrast with the FLD but had too much pink.

5 Stars extremely pleased
I ordered these filters for my Canon Powershot SX10 with the lensmate adapter. They fit perfectly. Came with nice protective case for filters. The filters seem too heavy for cheap plastic. Used the filters and compared pictures. They performed as needed. Great starter filter set. Very happy with product and the price. I know one day i will outgrow these filters but great for beginner or casual photographer.

5 Stars Good value for money
I had seen lens filters for an outrageous price at a local store. Decided to give these a try instead. Using these for 2 months now and they work absolutely fine. I am no big photography buff, so if they adversely affect the image, I wouldn’t know about that. Our pictures come out just as good as they did before, but now our lens is protected. Buy this filter, don’t waste your money on overpriced ones in stores.

2 Stars Polarizer Filter gives very little polarizing effects
There are many good reviews for this set. I was not impressed when I tried it on T1i. Maybe it’s not my luck got a bad set. The polarier has very little effects out door, I keep turning and turning the polarizer can’t see any different throught the viewfinder. Solution, focus on pc monitor and turn the polarizer until the monitor turn black throught the viewfinder, then focus out side throught the window and took the shots. I am going to upload two difference photos one with polarizer filter and one without. If I have a chance to try it before purchase, I wouldn’t buy it.

5 Stars Great flash
A must have for all pro photographers. Loads of power, decent battery life, excellent build quality. a little spendy, and i actually lucked out and got it $50 cheaper on sale on amazon. So keep your eyes open for a good deal.

4 Stars Welcome to a whole new world of options!
The Canon 580ex II. First up, if you’re still getting by with your on-board flash on your camera… good for you. However, I may seem like the bearer of bad news here but… you have no idea what you’re missing out on! I personally was using my camera’s on-board flash with the Gary Fong “Puffer” to soften the light up for quite some time before I decided to take on a wedding gig. That flash just wasn’t going to get me the “Oomph!” that I figured I would need to really reach out there with my flash (the on-boards are usually good for like… 6-15 feet and that’s it). I bought myself this flash and another diffuser and set to putting it through it’s paces a few months ago and here’s what I’ve got to say: Let’s keep it simple and tidy… so here goes!

What’s hot?

* WAY more reach than an on-board flash.

* Bounce flash option to get more “natural” looking light.

* Fill card and “wide angle” cover are very useful and built right into the head! Easy to use, then store.

* Very adjustable to your specific needs.

* Can be used as a “Master” unit to control “Slave” units that are placed off camera.

* Can be controlled by the Canon 7D’s built in master unit and act as a slave flash off camera.

* Sturdy build quality (even the accessory stand is made of metal).

* Rechargeable Energizer batteries last a lot longer than I was expecting in the unit, while maintaining good recycle rates.

What’s not?

* I’m afraid I’m going to break whatever the mechanism/pin is that locks the head in place (released via a button).

* All those adjustments take you a while to wrap your mind around. You can easily go from beginner to advanced lighting with this unit… a plus, but this means there’s a noticeable learning curve if you want to get it off “Auto” and your pictures to come out looking good.

* Bulky. (Though a battery grip on my 7D seems to help balance the weight out a little more for me)

* I haven’t been able to get the unit to work as a slave that also triggers my studio lights yet… but that’s probably more a “me” thing than a problem with the device.

All in all I’m pleased with it. It’s given me a new perspective and creative outlet for off-camera, on location flash that I simply can’t have in the studio when I’m anchored in place. I’ll suggest patience and taking time to learn all the ins and outs of the product if you take the plunge. Also… Wedding photography (even as just a “guest”) takes on a whole new level with creative and intelligent use of my Canon 580ex II. I highly recommend this product.

5 Stars Nice Speedlight
Exactly as expected, Canon Speedlight. Works as expected, i.e., very well.

Bought from Amazon because of excellent low price.

5 Stars Great flash unit
I can’t compare this Speedlite to other models because it is my first one. I am so impressed with what it does as compared to the built in flash. Right now I am using it in the auto mode. I have seen a brighter difference in my night time shots. I have taken around 500 pictures using the flash and the batteries still seem to be strong. It has a very quick recycle time. I don’t have to wait to take the next shot. This is a great investment. I look forward to learning all the ways of using the flash. I would recommend this Speedlite to anyone.

4 Stars Fantastic Product
This flash is fantastic I used a 430E Speedlite before but this produce superseeds it by farit

5 Stars Canon OEM battery
I purchased this battery for my Canon 5 D Mark2. This OEM battery works perfect with my camera and it reconizes the voltage and type of battery.I would recommend using this battery

with Canon camera’s. This unit holds the charge for a long time. There are other batteries that will fit our specific camera’s but they are not as good as the original. Be aware the voltage

and the mah are not the same. For the extra money stay with the original and you will have peace of mind. Regards Ed Wilson

5 Stars Canon LP-E6 Battery Review
I bought this LP-E6 Battery for a Canon 7D DSLR. It was delivered very quickly and I immediately used it for an airshow, taking over two hundred pictures. The battery lasted and continues to provide power.

5 Stars The price of perfection!!
The new battery for the EOS 7D is a bit expensive ($110.00 when I needed it),

but it has superb power(1800 mah)and gives the user great status feedback through the camera. Canon had embedded a chip in the battery that makes it difficult for the ‘knockoff’ folks to duplicate it at a more reasonable price.

5 Stars Great!
Official Canon battery at a great price, cheaper than fleabay and way cheaper than Canon!

5 Stars It’s a battery
What can you say, it is a battery and regardless of how long they last in the camera it’s always nice to have a spare.

Been waiting years to be able to afford the 580EX mk2

I photograph wildfowl at Bosque del Apache in New Mexico in the winter and if you aint’ got a 580 with the X-tender for capturing sunrise and sunset flight of cranes – you aint’ nobody!!

It is a little technical for an old guy but it performs like a jewel!!
