Comments about Adorama Adorama Remote Release Cord for the Nikon D90 Digital SLR, 3 Feet Long (MC-DC2):

This product works at designed. Nothing flashy. You push the button, you get an exposure. I haven't tried the bulb function yet. You can push the button half way to auto focus and then depress fully to expose. I bought it mainly to use instead of my remote which works fine, you just have to reach around the front of the camera to use it, because the receiver is in the front of the camera.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Remote Release Cord for the Nikon D90 Digital SLR, 3 Feet Long (MC-DC2):

Ok, so the cable works fine, but there is one thing, it does not work with D3100 Camera.
I tested the cable on my Friends D90 and it worked flawlessly, but even though the cable says "MC-DC2" which should work for the D3100... this one does not.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Remote Release Cord for the Nikon D90 Digital SLR, 3 Feet Long (MC-DC2):

I bought this wired trigger for my D90 to use during macro photography and low-light photography. The remote is working as desired and is definitely cheaper than the propriety piece.

Weak Link In Its Construction

Comments about Adorama Adorama Remote Release Cord for the Nikon D90 Digital SLR, 3 Feet Long (MC-DC2):

I use this product with the camera mounted on a tripod in landscape and studio photography. Most of it is well made and works as it should. The only problem with it the end that plugs into the camera is plastic and that is the point it will fail, the weak link. Also any user will have to be very careful not to pull on it even by accident or that plug tip can break off and maybe leave it inside the camera. If I had known about the plastic plug I would not have purchased the item.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Remote Release Cord for the Nikon D90 Digital SLR, 3 Feet Long (MC-DC2):

This keeps your hands off of the camera and makes it more steady. Also, after framing a portrait in the viewfinder you can step to the side of the camera and converse with your subject(s) and wait for the perfect moment to shoot. Also, it works great with macro and landscape shots.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Remote Release Cord for the Nikon D90 Digital SLR, 3 Feet Long (MC-DC2):

I use the cable release frequently on my Nikon D90.
It's an essential tool for long exposures in Bulb mode, trap focus (google it, it's great) for wildlife & Macro shots, or just to eliminate any shake for overall sharper pictures.
Every photgrapher should have a cable release in their bag and it's not necessary to spend a lot of money.
