Remote Shutter Cable with Intervalometer Newell MC-30 for Nikon – Wired Release, Interval Timer

The Newell MC-30 Remote Shutter Cable with Intervalometer for Nikon is a wired release designed to provide precise control over shutter actuation and timed interval shooting. It connects to compatible Nikon camera remote ports and combines a standard remote shutter function with an integrated interval timer. This accessory supports tasks such as long exposures, timelapse sequences and reducing camera shake during studio or landscape work where exact timing is important.

Advantages

The wired connection ensures reliable triggering without battery dependence in the remote unit, and the built-in intervalometer offers programmable start delay, exposure interval and number of shots. Compact and straightforward to operate, the cable reduces camera movement compared with handheld triggering and allows exposure sequences unattended. Its direct compatibility with Nikon remote ports eliminates the need for additional adapters.

Suitable for

• Timelapse photography (day-to-night transitions, construction, clouds)
• Long exposure and night photography (light trails, astrophotography)
• Studio and macro photography where camera shake must be minimized
• Any situation requiring repeated, precisely timed exposures

Key specifications

• Wired remote shutter release with integrated intervalometer
• Designed for direct connection to compatible Nikon remote ports
• Programmable functions: start delay, interval duration, number of exposures
• Supports single shot, continuous and timed sequence modes
• Compact inline housing with control buttons and LCD or display indicators

How to use

Connect the Newell MC-30 cable to the camera's remote shutter port, power on the camera and set the required exposure mode on the camera body. Use the inline controls to select single shot, timed sequence or continuous mode. For interval shooting, set the start delay if needed, enter the desired interval between frames and the total number of exposures, then start the sequence. For long exposures or bulb mode, use the release to lock the shutter open and release it when the exposure is complete. Follow your camera manual for any camera-specific settings such as mirror lock-up, exposure compensation or bulb operation.

Usage recommendations

To achieve stable timelapse sequences, mount the camera on a sturdy tripod, disable in-camera power-saving that might interrupt shooting, and test interval and exposure settings before beginning a long unattended session. For night and astrophotography, verify focus and exposure with test frames; for studio work, combine the cable with mirror lock-up or remote live-view shooting to minimize vibration.
