Hello,
Is there a way to add a wired trigger release to my Rebel XS camera? I'm wanting to do photography of the solar eclipse in April by mounting the camera on a telescope. I have the solar filter but just need a way to trigger the shutter without touching the camera.
Thanks

Yes. You'd need to purchase a Canon Remote Switch RS-60E3. That's around $22 and available at least at B&H Photo.
Refer to the User Manual starting on page 164 for working with the remote.
