Vello RS-N2II Overview

Whether shooting in the studio or outdoors, the Vello RS-N2II Wired Remote Switch provides photographers using select Nikon cameras with a DC-2 connection with a simple way to control exposures and create more "keepers". The device has a thick, sturdy cord and is larger and more comfortable to use than many other remote devices.

The RS-N2II is compatible with autofocusing, continuous shooting, single image capture, and long exposures. It will autofocus with a half press of the button and trigger the shutter with a full press. Also, users can press the button and slide it forward to lock it for long exposures. It can be used with cameras that feature live-view mode. Since exposures can be triggered without touching the camera, sharp, blur-free images are captured. The RS-N2II does not require batteries as it operates on the camera's power, making it an extremely useful tool to keep in your studio or gear bag.

It works great with my camera. If you need a long cord you will be out of luck with this one. I do close work is it is great.

No, the Vello RS-N2II Wired Remote Switch for Select Cameras with Nikon DC-2 Connector does not work with the Nikon Z8 Mirrorless Camera. The Z8 would use the Vello RS-N1II Wired Remote Switch for Select Cameras with Nikon 10-Pin Connector, BH #VERSN1II (https://bhpho.to/3Ou4vTe).
