Got this from Aperture for P800 which, I think, is much cheaper than the Canon brand. Been to 3 sorties already and happy with it.
I have only two "hesitations" with it:
1. The plastic seems too cheap. The push on switch has a sliding lock for bulb exposures (pretty much like flashlight switches of old). This sliding lock rocks a bit so you get the feeling it's not built rock solid.
2. Plugging into the camera requires a bit of "groping". I needed to rock the plug gently back/forth, up/down to finally get that reassuring feeling of getting plugged in.
So, in this case, you get what you paid for. Bottom line, it works.
