Review on Polaroid Shutter Release Timer Remote Control: Perfect for Nikon D90, D3100, D3200, and More Digital SLR Cameras by Sean Burnett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best connector for Nikon cameras

This is the only intervalometer with this design and button layout that has a 90° connector. This is very important as all consumer and semi-professional Nikon cameras come with this connector, which is much less secure than the professional model's 10-pin screw connector. Most other brands have a straight plug that sticks out very far. and it is very easy to break when you put your camera in your camera bag without separating it first. As a result, you pull all the wires out of the connector and the connector body gets stuck in the camera jack. So I killed about three intervalometers. The Polaroid brand angled connector makes this much less likely, keeps the cable closer to your body and out of the way, and if you're using an L-mount for your camera it can actually stay connected to the camera as the L-mount protects that Plug.Layout is like many other brands. A major advantage over Nikon's branded intervalometer is that it counts INTERval (interval=intermediate) as 1 second, as it should, rather than exposure time plus a second. Another advantage over other brands is that the display is quite dark and doesn't glare at night. Really well done in every way. This intervalometer works well with the new Nikon Z6 and Z7 mirrorless cameras!

Pros
  • set number of shots/unlimited
Cons
  • unreliable
