My Canon Powershot G5 have a wonderful tiny wireless remote control
Why didn't Canon give it with the DSLR's ?

Marilyn,
You have the Canon 5D, correct? You'll need an electronic cable
release for it. Two from Canon are the Canon Remote Switch RS-80N3 or
the Timer Remote Controller TC-80N3. The former is a simple switch
which replicates the shutter button functions at the end of a 2.5
foot wire. The latter is a more sophisticated device which allows you
to do a number of additional things with a wired remote for a few
more dollars. I've made do with the simpler one but often wish I had
sprung for the one with greater functionality. If cost is an object
there are also plans to be found online for making your own. The
problem with these is finding the right connector for plugging into
the camera.
I swallowed hard and bought the TC-80N3 and have not used all of its
features but those I have used have made the decision to buy it seem
like a good choice.
