Title: Nikon Wireless Shutter Remote
Post by: HarperPhotos on November 28, 2013, 03:48:57 pm

Hello,

I used the amazing devices last night doing a sunset shot of a house. I had the Nikon D800E set with mirror up and the transmitter worked perfectly. No more need to use the Nikon electron cable. The best $70 bucks I've spent in a long time. Its so good I just bought two more as back ups

Thanks for posting.  Curious will it allow interval shooting?  Cheaper than the Nikon wired remote with timer.

I have used one of these for over a year.  Excellent in all respects.  I don't think it has any programmable shooting modes.  It does work in bulb mode, though.  Transmitter runs on a AAA, which is very handy.

Simon,
does it work with a D3x as well?
And with the mirror - up  setting?
Cheers,

Hello Willem,

If it has the same socket then yes it will work on a D3x

For a simple Nikon remote look at the ML-L3. It uses the camera's built-in receiver and costs ~$20. Shutter release only, no interval shooting or use with mirror-up.

The Nikon professional level cameras like the D800, D4, D3X do not have an IR receiver and will not work with the ML-L3...
