Canon SX40

Hey
I would like to buy a remote shutter for my Canon SX40
What would you recommend?

Hi Leslie,

Thanks for your question about using a remote shutter release on the Canon Powershot SX40/
I'd recommend you use the self-timer instead. I know there are hacks available to try and get the USB port to be used for remote control, but the SX40 was not designed to take a remote.
Thanks,
Bruce

My goal is to provide useful information and sometimes I recommend products that I believe will help you with your photography, but there are no guarantees. I have used most, but not every single one of these products personally. There are simply too many (millions) for one person to try. I base my recommendations on the performance of the product, other photographers' feedback I gather, as well as my personal experiences with photography equipment since 1969. Yes, I'm that old!
