The new timer remote is compatible with most of the advanced Canon cameras, including the new Canon EOS 5D Mark III.

The signal lamp’s red status indicator means the shutter has begun countdown or is on hold while the green means the shutters has been released. Lastly, the wireless timer’s LCD screen features a screen illuminator to facilitate photographers taking images in a dark setting.
