I'm not opposed to a simple wired shutter release, I've been using one on my D700's and am rather satisfied with it.  I am looking into an intervalometer for a newer camera, (D750) and would appreciate any guidance or opinions.  I'm looking at the Nikon Ml-L3 and an SMDV T808.

Honestly, krag, I'd stay away from anything IR and
investigate wire (MC-36A) or radio (PocketWizard).

I got both systems… just a matter of reach.

The D750 has a good built-in intervalometer. You just need an MC-DC2. I used the wifi remote capabilities for years with my D7200 and D750 and an iPhone with WMU.

 

Nikon Shooter, the MC-36A is 10-pin, isn't it? The D750 uses the DC2 connector.

 

The ML-L3 is not a good remote as the sun will drown out the signal now and then, making it unreliable.

Why do I believe that what's good/usual for me is for all!

Thanks you are there, Peter! :P
