First the strong points. For doing timed interval shots it is a necessity. I do 5 minute shots of the night sky for 2 hours and it works great. You can set it and forget it. No trying to read a watch in the dark. The interval timer portion is relatively easy to set, once you figure out how to set it. There is a lock function, so you do not inadvertently trigger the timer and run down the battery. You can set intervals as close as one second apart and that is one thing to remember is to have the interval one second longer than the exposure, if you want to make more than exposure. For one exposure it doesn't make any difference what the interval is set at. To do a series of exposures, for example 5 exposures of 2 minutes each, the exposure would be 2 minutes and the minimum interval would be 2 minutes and one second. There is nothing preventing you from setting the interval to one minute or 2 minutes or any value. If the interval is less than the exposure plus one second, the timer will trigger one shot, skip the second and then maybe the third shot and so on. The display appears to use e-ink, so power usage is close to zero when it is not being used. There is a back light function than can be turned on, but it goes off after a few seconds. Nice feature to be able to see the remaining exposures and time in the dark. The MC-36 also has a manual remote button that is separate from the interval timer. The manual button can be locked on. The manual button does not use any power and will function with no batteries.What's not to like about this unit? It uses the 10 pin connector, so it only works on Nikon's that have a 10 pin connector. I usually connect the timer to my camera, mount the camera to a tripod and let the MC-36 dangle. Over time this has revealed a weakness in this unit. The wires are pulling loose from all the connectors. The wire have come loose at the 10 pin connector and at the unit itself. At the price of this unit, I would have thought it would have better strain relief built into the connectors. The unit still works, but I have had to reinforce the connectors to keep the wires from breaking. Beef up the strain relief at the connectors before they fail.The angle at which the 10 pin connector attaches to the camera means it is difficult to use the Really Right Stuff L-Plates in the vertical position and have the level on the tripod connector on the back side of the camera. The release lever is on the front of the camera this way and tends to smash the cable, unless you are careful.I give this unit 5 stars for function, but only 3 stars for holding up under use. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars This is a very useful remote. *by B***L on Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2007* I find this remote (MC-36) very useful and well built. I use it mainly for shooting single shots from a tripod to remove my fat fingers from the camera - thus removing camera shake when I would push the shutter release. The shutter button on the unit is large and easy to press. You can lock out all other buttons on the remote except the shutter button, therefore you don't press the Set button by mistake. Battery life seems reasonable. Batteries are not included - you need 2 AAA. Display is fine and has a backlight function. Fits well in your hand.I wish the cord was a little longer, but it seems acceptable. The cord connects to the camera via the standard 10 pin connector with the bonus of a durable metal screw-in adapater thus holding it in place securely.For those that want to be crazy, as what is life worth living if you can't be a little crazy, it's programmable for timed shooting where you can program up to 999 shots with 99 hours, 99 minutes and 99 seconds between each shot... of course, I can't think of a reason I would want to do that, but it's cool having the option - and what is life without options? You can get a lot more practical on the timed shooting also, where you can program in any number of shots (up to 999) over the course of any short (1 sec minimum) or long duration with interval times between shots. Programming is straight forward once you decide on frequency and interval times - the decision graph they give you in the manual leaves a little to be desired. The unit will beep when you are 3 seconds from the next timed shot - you can turn it off if you like. Countdown timer to next shot is shown on the display.I guess if I had a real gripe it would be about the size of the manual. I like to pack manuals in my bag, as I am getting old and I forget. This manual comes in many different languages - all in the same manual. So I ripped out the 9 pages I needed as I didn't want to carry the 60 page thing around due to the weight. If you buy this you will know what I mean when you see the manual. I have no problem with multi-language manuals, but why not include them as seperate by language so I can recycle the ones I don't want and keep only the pages I need.You want the ultimate captured memories of your kids growing up? Set up the tripod next to the crib and program in a shot every day for the next 999 days and watch your kids grow up on film (or on your hard drive if you are digital). Nice.Not cheap in price, but very nice in functionality.Edited 1/12/08: I broke down and bought a D300 (I couldn't resist) and it works just fine on it also. I am still using this remote after 8 months and I am still loving it. I use it anytime I put the camera on a tripod. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars More than just a "multi-function remote cord" *by B***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2009* I find myself using the MC-36 quite a bit more than I thought I would, and I'm sure anyone contemplating purchasing one knows what they're all about.I originally purchased it because I like the idea of using it during long exposures or awkwardly placed shots when the camera is mounted on a tripod. I'd rather preview the scene with Live View and use the MC-36 than bend, look in the eyepiece and risk jarring the camera or otherwise upsetting the shot. The MC 36 gives you all the essential functions in your hand, but a few feet from the camera.But it doesn't end there.You can take longer exposures than the camera normally permits (my D300 is limited to 30 seconds without the MC-36, but it can take virtually any duration with the cord attached). You can also do repeating time lapse and so on with it.Only complaints are that there's no ON/OFF switch, so the display is always running. I'm sure it doesn't use much power (haven't been through a set of batteries yet), but I'm sure it would run longer if there were a way to turn it off altogether. Still, I believe the manual says that the basic remote shutter operation continues to work, even without batteries, so there's at least some fail-safe in here.The other thing I don't love about it is that it's more complicated than it needs to be. Ideally, it would be integrated into the camera's excellent menuing system so you could use all the functions without memorizing the manual, but this isn't the case. It does a lot - you just have to read the manual to figure it out.Otherwise, great product. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/11569888-nikon-mc-36-multi-function-remote-cord-33-5-inches](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/11569888-nikon-mc-36-multi-function-remote-cord-33-5-inches) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
