Description
Equipped with an 80cm cable, the Canon RS80-N3 is a wonderfully handy device for taking pictures of subjects that are difficult to approach, or to minimise vibration for close-ups and time exposure. Working just like a shutter button, it enables halfway or complete pressing. This, combined with the shutter-release lock makes this a fantastically useful device.

The RS-80N3 is a wired remote shutter release for Canon cameras with the N3 terminal. It’s designed to let you trigger the shutter without touching the camera.
 Key Features
- Prevents camera shake → perfect for long exposures, macro, and telephoto shots
- 2-step button → half-press (focus) + full-press (shoot), just like your camera
- Shutter lock → useful for Bulb mode (long exposures)
- Wired (no batteries needed) → powered by the camera
- Cable length:Â ~80 cm / 2.6 ft
 Compatibility (Important!)
Works with Canon EOS cameras that have the N3 port, such as:
- 5D, 6D, 7D series
- 1D / 1Ds series
- Some newer R-series (like R5, R3)
Not compatible with most entry-level Rebels (those use a different connector like RS-60E3).
 When It’s Worth It
Get this if you:
- Shoot long exposures (night, astrophotography)
- Use a tripod and want zero shake
- Do macro photography
- Need a reliable, no-lag trigger (better than Bluetooth in many cases)
Limitations
- No timer, interval, or advanced controls
- Short cable (you stay close to the camera)
- Wired only (no wireless convenience)
