Question about Canon Tc-80n3

The thing doesn't look very high-quality, can do the most necessary things and is not particularly intuitive to operate. It does what it has to do, no more. I don't think any non-Canon product is significantly worse, if at all.

I think it's just because it says "Canon" on the Canon product.

Hi SunFusion
Certainly the price of Canon accessories is very high. It is clear that you pay for the name.
Whether you are better off with a cheaper product from another manufacturer/supplier, I can't answer. But when I look at the range of functions of both products, you are better off with the original. The original has a higher quality, more modes, a battery life of 3 years, a focus function - if you need all the functions. But if you have to pay attention to the price, I have a better alternative to the original. The only thing is that digitec does not sell the brand. I will send you the Swiss supplier and the link to the product by PN. Do you need the N3 connector or the jack plug?

I have both the original and the copy with a different plug so that it fits the G15. The quality of the Canon product is much better. You have to decide for yourself if it's worth it, the functions are identical.
