    • Great for video bloggers and as a sub for a cable release
I wanted a Bluetooth remote for my EOS 6D MKII so I bought the Canon Wireless Remote Control BR-E1. The BR-E1 is functionally similar to the RC-1 and RC-6 remotes but uses Bluetooth instead of IR to trigger the camera. Why Use the BR-E1? The BR-E1 helps eliminates camera shake in photos using slow shutter speeds by remotely triggering the shutter and/or AF. Plus, the BR-E1 can trip the shutter from 16.4 feet above, below, behind or to the side of the camera so it makes a great substitute for a cable release. The BR-E1 also allows video start/stop and focus without touching the camera. In the past I used the RC-1 and RC-6 IR remotes to record most of the videos on my YouTube channel: sit in chair with guitar, press remote button and rock! Unfortunately, video lights are extremely bright and overwhelm the IR signal if not pointed exactly at the camera’s IR sensor. With the BR-E1, the radio signal over Bluetooth means I don’t have to maintain line of sight or worry about bright lights: press and it triggers no matter what. It’s also able to control the zoom function for the Canon Power Zoom Adapter PZ-E1, a function I couldn’t test since I don’t own a PZ-E1. Pairing the BR-E1 For triggering stills and video with Bluetooth equipped EOS cameras, you need to pair the BR-E1 with your camera. Each EOS model is a little different but this is the basic procedure for the 6D MK II: • Enable Bluetooth in camera menus • Select “pairing” • Hold down both zoom buttons on the remote • When the camera asks if you’d like to pair with the BR-E1, tap "yes" Once paired, put the camera in self-timer/remote mode and press the big round button on the BR-E1 to take a picture. That's it. There's a three-way switch on the side to toggle between immediate release, 2-second delay and video release. If you disable Bluetooth and enable Bluetooth at a later date, the camera remembers the paired BR-E1. In other words, pairing is a one time only operation for each device. Bulb Use For bulb exposures, fire the BR-E1 once to open the shutter and again to close it. If the BR-E1 is set to 2-second delay, there will be a 2-second delay before the shutter first opens. MLU The BR-E1 can be used with mirror lockup (MLU): enable MLU in camera menu, enable self-timer/remote mode, set 2-second delay on the BR-E1 and, finally, press the big button on the BR-E1. The mirror will swing up and the shutter opens two seconds later. Sleep Mode The default sleep mode setting for most EOS cameras is 60 seconds. With the RC-1/RC-6 that meant you had to trigger within 60 seconds or the camera timed out. However, with the BR-E1, if the camera sleeps, you can wake it with a single press and trigger with a second press. Good show Canon! Gotchas Not many gotchas other than a steep price and incompatibility with older EOS. The BR-E1 Wireless Remote Controller only works with recent Bluetooth equipped EOS such as the 6D MKII, SL2, T7i, 77D, etc. So no support for a M3 or 80D from only a couple years back. Last Blurb The BR-E1 is a easy to use and somewhat pricey accessory but has proven to be an essential tool in my studio, making my one man production solo guitar and duet video shoots easier. It's also ideal to control vibration during long exposures and, of course, to trigger selfies and group photos. ... show more

    • Easy setup and use
This works great with my RF-6 M2. Connection was easy, just need to make sure to have camera in the right mode when I want to use it. I haven't really tested the range but seems to be fine within 10 feet. I would buy this again if I needed to, as opposed to some of the knockoff triggers that seem to have dependability issues from time to time. ... show more

    • Works Well, but Overpriced for What It Is
The Canon Wireless Remote Control BR-E1 does exactly what it promises. It’s reliable, easy to pair, and offers seamless wireless control for capturing photos and videos. The compact size and straightforward functionality make it a handy tool for any photographer. However, the price feels steep for such a simple device. While the quality is solid and it integrates perfectly with Canon cameras, it’s hard to justify the cost compared to more affordable third-party options. Great product, but a better value would make it perfect. ... show more

    • very easy to use.
I really like this remote to use with my Canon R6 II to take our fall family photos. Before purchasing this remote I had contemplating on buying other aftermarket remote controller but in the end I went with the Canon brand because of their quality control when it comes to Camera equipment and accessories. I have tested the distance or this remote by placing the camera in my bedroom and I went to my daughter's room that was 2 wall separation from the master bedroom and the remote still work just find. The standard button for zooming and shutter button is flushed in the remote so you don't accidentally pressed those buttons. There is no off switch but the switch on the remote is to toggle between a 2sec delay photo or instant. Really glad I go with the Canon brand for it's reliability. ... show more
