The reason I didn't use the remotes on my gear was that the guy who bought my D300 fried it....trying some Chinese remote control unit.
Well as it happens I have managed to get my original Wireless remote working again (Chinese)...
The wired remote of yours seems to have an intermittent broken connection in to the full shutter release, pin 1, it has worked a couple of times but not consistently.
If I do use the wireless units I will test them rigorously before attaching them, but in all probability I will only use the leads with the ten pin plugs, rather than the entire unit.
They could have other uses, for remote actuation of almost any device... Better not go there.
Am I glad I never used it?
