Third party shutter release

[cannockwolf]

has anyone had any experiences with this Chinese shutter releases? I was hoping to start doing stacked images for use with Deep Sky and the timer gizmos look a good idea on this one, plus i always forget a stopwatch for long exposures :bang:

I bought the exact same one for my Sony A100 when I had it, worked a treat. Recently bought a wireless remote for my D300 from them and pleased with that considering it was less than £15 inc p&p.

Not sure how long they'll last but the Nikon one from Cameraworld looks exactly the same for £129. Link I suppose it depends on how much you'll use it and if you have the funds to go for the Nikon one as I couldn't find any other alternative when I was looking. Would have gone for this rather than the wireless but the D300 has interval/timed exposures built in so didn't need it. Hasn't the D700 got the same function?

a mine of information! LOL

this has jogged my memory, it has, never used it so totally forgot, still good for long exposures though, thanks for the input.
