First thing you should know is, yes this is compatible with the Canon EOS Rebel T4i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital Camera with 18-135mm EF-S IS STM Lens and probably with the Canon EOS Rebel T5i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital SLR with 18-135mm EF-S IS STM Lens as well since it literally the same camera. I was looking all over to find out if it was compatible, on Canon's website, in product reviews, in Google searches, but didn't find anything confirming absolutely that it's compatible--until after I bought it and found this information somewhere in the user manual. In any case, it works despite my model of camera not being listed in the product description.
Most of all, it's nice to finally be in front of the camera for group shots and such without having to press the shutter button and then rush to a reserved spot in the crowd. It was also extremely helpful in making a new headshot for use in online profiles such as Monster, LinkedIn, Indeed and the like. Before this I had to rely on the photography skils of others taking just a few shots which never came out as I wanted them to.
With the flip out screen of the Canon T4i I've been able to see myself in Live View, take multiple headshots myself, and then choose from the best of them. This wouldn't work nearly as well if I were simply using the timer setting.
There is even a switch on the back to change between immediate shutter and two second delay--so that you can hit the button and get the remote out of site for the photo.
It also works in Bulb Mode as well for shots such as Astrophotography and Fireworks, so you can enjoy the view and get the shots you really want to get without having to be tied to the camera. The remote works even at fifteen feet away or more.
Since it's an infrared transmitter, it does not work from behind the camera--because the sensor is on the front of the camera--but otherwise it works as well as a wired trigger.
Bottom Line: It's a wonderful tool to have, and the price is right. I recommend anyone with a compatible camera get one.

I was close to putting 5 stars, but the fact that the thing is so light, it makes me wonder if it will last a few years. It is very inexpensive for what's supposed to be an actual Canon product, but still; I think a quarter weighs more than the remote. I guess I expected more from a licensed Canon accessory, and wonder if I should have bought a generic one instead that was half the price, and just as sturdy (and saved 10 bucks, wow!). Hey, 10 bucks is 10 bucks!! If this thing breaks in half when my cat steps on it, I think I'll probably just buy one of those handheld deals with a wire that connects to the camera.
