Nikon MC-EU1 Remote Control for Coolpix

I originally purchased this unit in April 2015 and finally found the time to write a quick review. So far I haven't had any problems with it. I have two reservations about this remote; the cable could be a bit longer and the display is very difficult to see from the outside. A suggestion for cord; An EXTENSION CORD would be acceptable as the original short cord works great in many cases, but adding an extension cord would suffice for remote applications. When using the wide-angle WC80 lens…

Pros
  • Adapter
Cons
  • No Power

Not too impressed Good for batteries and chargers

Well I've been waiting for this item for a long time and finally got it a few days ago. It's a pretty cool little thing that feels great in the hand and has handy features like a backlit LCD display for low-light situations. But he has many problems. First, when the camera is busy saving a picture you just took and you try to turn on the LCD backlight, 75% of the time the display goes completely blank and stops working. You have to turn the camera off and on again for it to work again. Second…

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Used Sold as new

I paid full price for this remote control and was disappointed to find that I received a used one instead. The box was crumpled along with the instructions, the previous owner's check was folded. The LCD, difficult to read at best, is obviously scratched and badly worn by the previous owner. The included battery also looked like it had been previously opened up. The device itself seems poorly designed, with recessed buttons that are difficult to press with your thumbs and a fairly short cable…

Pros
  • Fits me perfectly
Cons
  • No instructions

Disappointment

The LCD display is difficult to read without a backlight. The buttons are too small and deeply recessed, making them very difficult to press, although designed to be difficult to press accidentally, this is too much. That with a minimum setting of 2 minutes between time lapses is just stupid, if you want to time lapse with internal intervals less than 2 minutes it won't work. The remote knows when the camera is busy so it can record as fast as the camera stores. When the camera turns off, I…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors are here
