p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Nikon D500 Remote Shutter Release?!


I'm about to pitch a fit. I've got a Vello remote shutter release that I've used with every Nikon I've had for the last 5 years. I can use a 10-pin cable with the D800, or whatever cable it is that goes with everything else. No problems.

Today? I put the 10-pin on the D500 and nothing. I can't find anything in the menus that has anything to do with setting the connection for shutter release, I can only find wireless trigger menu items for wireless flash triggering.

Can someone please help me?!?! Is there a menu setting I need to play with so I can use a wired shutter release?! If so, where the heck is it?!

I've got birds leaving a nest that I promised my wife I would shoot and I'm ready to throw this thing.

It's just plug-and-play with my Nikon MC-30A remote. No menu settings involved.

45 of the most frustrating minutes later .... bad cable. Swapped it out and I'm up.


Grrrr.

At least now I don't have to worry about a new cable if I buy a D500.

That's like trying to find out what's wrong with our band sound system, and taking a long time to find it's just a bad cable or dead battery somewhere in the signal chain.
