Fernauslöser 60 T3.
An electronic cable release with a 2' cord, allows for independent control of light metering and shutter release. The Remote Switch 60T3 is designed to be used when the camera is mounted on a tripod for close-up shooting or when using a telephoto lens with which camera-shake is a particular problem. Attach directly to the camera's remote control socket.

On the EOS-1, 600, and A2 series, there is an accessory called the "Remote Switch 60T3". It is a 3-terminal switch with a 60cm cord that can sense when the button has been pressed half way. It plugs into a special socket at the base of the grip. The button can be locked down by sliding the button forward. If an adaptor to a standard cable release is required, use the "Cable Release Adaptor T3". Many cable releases provide a locking mechanism. The Remote Switch 60T3 is generally regarded as more convenient since it gives better feedback as to when the switch is pressed half way, is one piece, and is faster to operate.

The 650, 630, and RT require the purchase of a replacement grip GR20. It is identical to the standard grip GR30, but has the appropriate socket.
