I'm looking for a wireless shutter release for my Canon 50D. There aren't any reviews online about these; has anyone here used them?

Any other suggestions for wireless releases?

Do a search on RF-602. Works well and very cheap prices.

I have the Cybersync radio trigger for flashes. Can I use that at the same time as these wireless shutter releases?

yup...

Or Just get two transmitters (RF-602) and use the camera trigger on channel 1 and the Flash trigger on channel 2. that works too.

+1 on the RF-602's - they do the half press for focus - ultra reliable and the price is right.
