Only one small complaint - there is no on/off switch. The remote is always on. Not sure why Nikon designed it this way, but I gave it four stars for that reason. from Wolfcamera.com Defintely it is not the easier(and functionless) trigger to handle, but once you are familiar with it, becomes an irreplaceable allied. When making my decision, I considered to buy a wireless remote control, which is attached to camera's hot shoe. I congratulate myself for having decided to buy MC-36, due to the freedom in using the hot shoe for attaching flash or bubble level, as well as avoiding undesirable shots when using wireless remote (as stated by other buyers in their reviews). Final comment is: if you wish stability and availability to remain near your camera while shooting, MC-36 is an ideal alternative to your work. from Bhphotovideo.com A spring loaded male/female connector would be much easier - especially in the field. Unlike most other devices - this is something the manual really is required for. Other Nikon electronics I find you could almost work without a manual all together. They seem to be learning devices that you naturally can pick up with even a moderate amount of experience. from Bhphotovideo.com I've used the MC-36 Remote for a Portrait photo Shoot. I was amazed at the sharpness of the photographs I took with a Micro Nikkor 105mm lens. from Bhphotovideo.com The MC-36 remote cord is a little large but very smooth and easy to use. I especially like the numercial readout and frame sounder. from Adorama.com The MC-36 Multi-Function Remote Cord provides redundancies, just as it's title indicates. It is more than a remote shutter release. from Amazon.com This is a great product by Nikon...however, major drawback is it's missing an on/off button. Come on Nikon...someone on the team must have figured this out from Amazon.com I bought this for doing macro setups with a Nikon D200. It has more features than I really need but it is very well made and the remote wand is easy to use without looking. from Amazon.com No off/on switch and no sleep mode. The unit is on at all times when in use and not in use. Poor thinking on Nikon's part. Instructions, little as they were, are poorly layed out. from Amazon.com this remote has literally saved my life. I started shooting astrophotography with my nikon d200, and for that, i need exposure time for more tahn 30 seconds. So, I can use the remote to "lock" the release button, so the shutter will be open for as long as I want-saved! from Amazon.com
