Answer:

it has a built-in shutter lock, so yes. however, it's still manual control, so if you want to time it exactly you're better off with a third-party MCDC2-like remote on which you can set the expo time/interval digitally.

Answer:

My guess is that the lead is in the solder used on the circuit boards. Try not to eat it and you'll be fine.

Answer:

I use the MC-DC2 with the D700 and the D800, when the GPS-1 is attached to those camera's 10-pin socket, and it works just fine. I imagine the same thing would work with ANY Nikon camera that accepts the GPS-1 connected to the 10-pin socket.

The previous answer didn't understand the question.

Answer:

MC-DC2 won't work with you D3s, to use this you need a special port which D3S doesn't have
(Nikon is making too much kind of Remote Release Cord, giving muti body user a big headache, please fix this Nikon)
Another solution to the problem. Is to use a GPS logger or install a GPS logging software in a smartphone with build in GPS(this will use a lot of the power in the smartphone), then export the data and input the data back to the Photo with ViewNX2, but in the case you need to make sure you camera TIME data is correct to sec.(can be done with Nikon Transfer time Synchronize function)

Actually Hotduckz, according to a earlier question as far as it working with the D3000 and answered by a Nikon staff...it will work with the D3000. It get connected on the left-side of the camera under the narrow flap where you would connect the USB cable.

I like to tag my images with GPS data, but when I use the GP-1 on my D300 I can"t use my remote release. Would the MC-DC2 release plug into my GP-1 and allow me to have (and use) functionality for both?
