question

is there any way to use the remote to trigger two cameras simultaneously with the intervalometer setting ?
Asked by: Anonymous
No. This device can only trigger 1 device. If you were to buy a wireless intervalometer with an additional receiver, then you could fire 2 cameras from 1 transmitter.

question

Hello, I'm shooting with a D-700 and older Fuji Finepix S3Pro and Nikon N90s. What is the difference between the Nikon MC-36 and the MC-36A?Can either be used on any of the cameras?I was only able to find the MC-36 Manual, so I can't compare the features.
Asked by: Anonymous
The MC-36A is an updated model of the MC-36 Multi-Function Remote, with newer material used in its construction, but functionality and compatibility are the same as the MC-36.
