Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
I especially like the quick push in connector without the time consuming threaded tightener.This remote is still better value than the Nikon brand for over $150. I used this for about three years, until it failed. After trying a few more cheap ones[*] which are now trashed, I came back to this one.

Plug it in to my Nikon 200 and take pictures when I push the button. Thats what I needed and that is what it does.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
The plug was always difficult to insert into the camera, eventually came apart as I was removing it. Only used it about 5 or 6 times. Invest the extra $30 for the Nikon cable, it will out last the camera instead of the opposite.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Works well with my D300, my unit also has a threaded ring that is difficult for my fingers to really grasp well. With a little patience, it just adds a feeling of security knowing that the cord is threaded into place. I will add that it also works without being threaded into place.
If all you really need is to fire the camera without shake, this unit does just fine. I would rather save the money vs. the Nikon brand and move on...

Works well but there is a lock mechanism and you need to be careful it is not set before attempting to open the shutter.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
This seems to be a perfectly good remote release. The cord is of sufficient length except for including yourself in the shot. The only negative is that alignment of the pins is difficult. Marking the connector to help with alignment is a good idea.

I love this little gadget and carry it in my bag all the time. It is used every time I'm photographing images using a tripod. It functions just fine and I have no complaints.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Inexpensive and works like a champ on my Nikons. Not exactly built like a tank -- wouldn't want this to get banged around at all but for the price it does what it is supposed to do.

A great remote at a fraction of the price of the brand named equivalent. Why pay more????
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Although this product was listed for Nikon digital cameras, It was my mistake that it didn't work for a D300 camera.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
I use this remote release for most of my tripod work. It's inexpensive, reliable and does not require batteries. I use this remote release on a Nikon D300, D700 and D3. It solves a lot of the inconvenient operational issues I had with expensive Nikon battery powered remote. The Nikon remote is complex and is great for certain uses. This is the remote I use most of of the time because I don't need the the extended operating features of the Nikon remote. I own the Nikon remote and like it but this simple manual remote release is the remote release that gets the most use. It works every time, attaches quickly to the 10 pin connector and has proved to be a very useful tool. It does not take up much room in my camera bag. Adorama has come up with an excellent alternative to the Nikon remote!

I was looking for something to use with the tri pod for fireworks and landscape shots. Have since used it in many other situations. Have even used it as a dash cam with the camera fastened from the rear view mirror. Very well made. A value for the price.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
I got this as a backup to my Nikon original remote release, which I've used a ton and was beginning to show wear. To my surprise, I like the Adorama release better! First of all, it's smaller and convenient. Second, it plugs easily into the 10 pin socket, unlike the Nikon which must be screwed in to secure it (and is very hard to do if you have large fingers). Third, it only costs [$]Another case where the replacement part is better than the original equipment. Highly recommended.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Works great, perhaps as well as Nikon's own expensive one. But be careful when you take this off the body - this may "touch" the lense body and leave mark.

Can't comment on durability yet. Feels somewhat flimsy, but works fine for two weeks now.
Use for HDR series, macro, lower light landscape

Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
What's not to like. Works just like the Nikon product at much less cost. Great for times when vibration control is a must. It's not something you use every day, so reliability should not be a problem. Plug fits fine into D300.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Item is really very good and straight forward to use. One of my favorite gadgets in my Nikon Gear. [...] It's not easy to fit - you may be very careful because you will destroy the 10 pins and won't fit any more![...]looks it works fine so far!

Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
It kills me to spend 4X more just to have the Nikon name on a piece of plastic and a switch. Adorama comes through again with a private label, inexpensive alternative the doest the trick. Not wireless, but the cord is long enough to get you far enough from the lens to get a different perspective on the shot. You won't be rocking the boat or your camera if you keep this in your camera bag!
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
I've been using this cable every day for two weeks now and I'm very happy with it. I use it on a D200 and so far it has worked as it should. I haven't had it long enough to judge how 'durable' it is but it seems pretty sturdy. Most importantly, it does what it needs to do. I'm pleased with the purchase and would definitely recommend it.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
I was expecting a product that was "cheap" in quality however I was surprised by the rugid construction.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Works good. The plug fit it´s not perfect, (due to the cheap construction) but after fast one year of use, works still very well on my D200.
I think is a good alternative for the money.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
The Adorama remote is an economical shutter release solution for Nikon cameras. The connection to the camera is nice snug fit. It stays put. The silver button is handy in dark studios like mine. I been using the remote for about a month. I use when I'm shooting macro to eliminate camera movement. I have had no problems with it.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
I had read all the reviews before purchasing and bought it. I love the simplicity of it and the snug fit...I don't have to worry about it. Works wonderful for what I need and use it for.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
It's great for macro shots because it eliminates camera shake and is especially useful when the camera is mounted upside down below the top of the tripod close to the ground.

This controller behaves as I expected on my D3. As someone else mentioned: the plug does not seem to fit all the way into my camera's socket. It maybe goes in 3/4 of the way. Nonetheless, it fulfills its simple purpose, and this issue was not a deal breaker for me.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
I'm not sure if the plug fits properly in the D300 female. I haven't tried Nikon's to see if it is any easier. It just doesn't sem to seat all the way. The release does work, though. No complaints in that department.

fine job - takes getting used to as it is sensitive, but after that...OK.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
It's funny that a lot of the reviews say a tight fit like that's a bad thing. I guess it would be better if it were loose and came out unintentionally? Anyway I got mine today and it fits great, there are three fins that match with three grooves in the camera plug, assuring proper insertion. Works like the shutter button, gentle touch-focus, push all the way-trips shutter.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
A couple of the pins in the connector were too thick, and the remote would not fit into the socket on the camera.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Connection to the camera is a little stiff and fidly to attach so I just leave mine on. I tether it to the camera neckstrap and because it is lightweight it is not a bother.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Lone gone are the days when you could use a 3 dollar cable release. This item works like it should. If you have a D200 you need this item. This is just as good as the Nikon release and at a much better price. When Adorama puts its name on a product, it lives up to its name.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
It's certainly a valid purchase if you don't want to go with the official Nikon's cable. The release button is a little hard to operate at first. In general I'm very satisfied and I found this to be a great accessory
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
Simple and easy to use. Connection into camera is a little tight and can be difficult to attach. Otherwise it does exactly what it is supposed to do. Seems to be well made differing from what other reviewers have said.

I have used it on 4 major trips for long exposures near sunrise/sunset and night shots. It works great for removing vibrations associated with a photographer touching the camera to set off the shutter.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
This is a very handy way to shoot in low light or just to make sure your shots come out focused. I use my cable all the time for real estate, night shots and groups. The cable has a nice feel while shooting and the plug fits snugly in the camera (D200) every time.
I used a wireless remote on my D70 and had some issues. The cable focuses the camera and shoots just as fast as the camera shutter release button,
Its 6 feet of length is really all you need. very simple to use. You do need to be conscious about the keeping light out of the viewfinder without touching the camera.
Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):

I photograph real estate and I try my hardest to use the camera on a tripod without extra lighting thanks to digital. This is a great tool without any problems for hands off camera use. Its fun to use and the plug fits very snug into the camera.

Comments about Adorama Adorama Digital Remote Release with 36" Cable for Nikon D200, D300, D2X, D2XS & D3 Digital SLR Cameras (10 Pin Plug):
This remote works fine - as a very basic remote shutter release. Switch has two positions - prefocus - and release. It also has third position - which looks like lock. Maybe it is for continuous shooting - i did not try; and there is no users manual to explain. Remote also has some plug - looks like a headphones plug. No clue what for - but I am only beginner - so maybe it should be clear to more experienced photographer. The overall feel of remote is very cheap - thin plastic - the parts don't fit perfectly each other. For almost $[...] - I would expect more proffesional design. On the other hand it works fine as a shutter release (question is only for how long)
