The Canon RS-80N3 Remote Switch is an 80 cm wired release cable for Canon EOS cameras that use an N3-type socket. Its two-stage control button mirrors the camera's shutter-release behavior: a half-press activates autofocus and a full press fires the shutter. A mechanical lock on the switch lets you hold the shutter down for long exposures or unattended continuous shooting, while the wired connection ensures reliable operation and minimal lag.

Advantages

The remote switch reduces camera shake during exposures and provides precise shutter control at a distance of 80 cm. Its two-stage button preserves the camera's native AF and exposure workflow, and the locking mechanism allows hands-free long exposures or timed sequences. The wired interface offers consistent performance without batteries or wireless interference.

Suitable for

• Long-exposure photography (night, light painting)
• Macro photography to avoid camera movement
• Studio or tripod work where remote triggering is required
• Unattended continuous shooting or timed sequences

How to use

Connect the N3 plug to the compatible socket on your Canon EOS camera. Use a half-press of the button to activate autofocus and metering, then press fully to release the shutter. For long exposures or continuous shooting without holding the button, engage the lock to keep the button depressed. After shooting, disengage the lock and remove the cable when no longer needed.

Recommendations

To minimize camera shake, mount the camera on a sturdy tripod before using the remote switch. Verify the compatibility of your camera's remote socket type (N3) and avoid pulling or bending the cable sharply to extend its service life.
