Works great

(4 out of 5) by Mike on Nov 24, 2008 (USA)
I purchased this to use with my D300. It came in a basic no thrills box and came with the batteries. It has worked fine. I went on a three day workshop and used it every day all throughout the day. When I used it all day I left it on the camera the entire time and screwed it into the plug - when in my home studio I just plug it in without screwing it down, it stays on just fine. Overall I probably shot about 1000 pictures with it and it seems to be going fine. If I ever get to the point of convincing myself to put a piece of velcro on my camera, then I will secure it to the camera with a piece of velcro; I'm afraid that it dangling and swinging will eventually put stress on the wires and break them, but so far so good and still velcro free. There are some visible dip switches on the remote, but I didn't buy it for its look, I bought because of the good price. The switches enable you to change the frequency if needed.

This product is far less expensive than others but works great. Have used it with my D300 with great success.

Basic Wireless Remote

(4 out of 5) by Steve G. on Aug 31, 2008 (Marietta, GA USA)
I bought the Opteka wireless remote shutter release to use with my Nikon D300. The product works fine. The range is good and so far it's fired flawlessly. It's a good, simple wireless remote release... just wish I'd paid a little less for it.

Does what it's supposed too.

(4 out of 5) by Levi Sickels on Jan 19, 2009 (Chicago, IL)
Works great even from a distance. My only gripe is that it doesn't use standard batteries which makes replacing them in a pinch rather difficult. remove the batteries after every use and you'll be safe.
