Conclusion: Quality Remote Cable Release


Review: I had purchased this for my father in law and he seems to be very pleased with it. He has taken thousands of photos already using it because of his shaky hands, this makes a perfect accessory.

Conclusion: Save Your Money


Review: This is, quite simply, an unvarnished Nikon rip-off. I bought an identical version of this release cable on eBay for eight bucks, shipping included! See link below. Nikon seems to think that once you have bought one of their cameras, you are forever locked in to buying their expensive accessories exclusively. A previous reviewer was quite right. It's just an expensive hunk of Nikon plastic.

Conclusion: Does what it's intended to do


Review: A remote cable is an important camera accessory. When taking low-light time-exposure photos using a tripod, it's important to use mirror lockup and a remote shutter release cable. Why? Because even though you have mounted the camera on a tripod, when the shutter is open for a long time, even a tiny amount of shaking will cause blurring.

Another use for the Nikon MC-30 cable is to lock the shutter open while cleaning the digital sensor.

Finally, many portrait photographers use a remote cable shutter release so they can get closer to the subject, especially when taking photos of infants or small pets.

The Nikon MC-30 cable release is built by Nikon to the same quality standards as their cameras. Before the MC-30, I used an "ADIDT" cable release, purchased from an internet auction site. The ADIDT release failed during an important assignment, making it appear that the camera itself was malfunctioning. After a few minutes of panic, I removed the ADIDT cable release and the problem immediately went away.

The Nikon MC30 is an important accessory that is always in my camera bag.

Conclusion: Nikon Cable release


Review: I do a great deal of studio and table top work and always used a cable release to minimize camera shake. The self timer can do the job, but a cable release is better. I have a Nikon D300. The only criticism that I have is that it is a tight fit to be able to screw in the connection to the camera (it pushes in and then screws in to lock it in place). If I had arthritis or fat hands, this could be a problem. Otherwise, it works great.
