Nikon MC-36A Remote Cord

Finally a remote that lets me set exact timing intervals without fiddling with the camera menu. The bulb function works flawlessly for long night exposures, and the cord length is just right for keeping the camera steady.

I’ve been using this remote cord for my camera’s bulb shots, and the timer function is surprisingly handy for long exposures. It’s sturdy enough to feel reliable on location, though I wish the cord were just a bit longer for tripod work.

The 33.5-inch cord gives me plenty of slack to position the remote away from the camera, and the bulb function works flawlessly for long exposures. Set it up once, and the timer remote part is surprisingly intuitive for stitching together star trails.
