A good length and the release is smooth and easy to push.

Not the fanciest but it worked.

Recommendation: including a guide book wouldn’t hurt!An inexpensive little miracle that never leaves my camera bag! When you learn how to release it, it’s the most comfortable and reliable thing you have in your bag! Now I’m doing long exposure in my night photography and I love it so much!

Funciona tal como se esperaba, no tiene manual, estaría muy bueno que lo tuviera, trae una correa para que sea más complicado perderlo.

Broke on first use. Cable activated but won’t release so it is permanently activated.

The item was received in good order and expeditiously. It is value for money. But the connection from cable to camera is held by a few threads, as the camera only permits. Hence it could create a minor problem in operation - no fault of the cable as the recess in the shutter button is shallow. I would have preferred to purchase the Fujifilm Remote Release RR-100. But the cost is 3 times that of this JJC Mechanical Shutter Release Cable Cord with Bulb-Lock.

I’m using this for my Canon AE-1 and works great. Sometimes the locking mechanism on it kinda sucks but it’s a rare thing and I don’t lock it that much but works 100%

I bought this because at the time I just bought a boxed unused Nikon FM3a and I couldn't find a Nikon branded cable in mint condition.So I used this release a total of four times before I gave up. It's very flimsy, the interval cable is poly and not braided stainless steel. I think the internal cable actually stretched out. Making it not possible to take a shot reliably or at.When slightly bent due to angle coming into the camera, it will not fire a shutter. I had several missed shots due to issues with this release.My recommendation to buyers, if they are able to read this, and amazon doesn't block my review here, is to not waste their time with third party releases. They're all junk. Instead go to eBay and purchase a boxed mint condition Nikon AR-3 Shutter Release. It will cost you $32USD and it will be perfectly reliable for years.

These are really well made and definitely a good value for the price. If you have never used a mechanical cable-release before you might get confused about how it works. Just because it has more than 1/2" of cable-travel available doesn't mean you need to use all of it to trigger your shutter. Squeeze gently. Works perfectly on all of my Copal shutters, Rolleiflex and Mamiyas.

I love that I can use this on my brand new Fuji X100V as well as on my vintage film cameras. It's solidly built and looks like it will last a long time. As other people have noted it takes a few seconds to figure out the locking mechanism but it's actually dead simple. Keep in mind that the indicated length includes the button assembly so it seems a bit shorter than it is.

okay, look...it takes a couple of minutes to look at the instructions and figure out the way this works. Maybe do that before rushing to write a bad review about how you can't make something work. Yes, out of the box, it appeared that the cable was locked in the fully depressed position, and would not spring back, but read the instructions, fiddle with it a little, and...jeepers, works like a charm! And yeah, the cable extends a good inch and a half - but who's forcing you to push the plunger that far? Plus, I believe the camera button would simply stop the extension without any damage being done... unless you're just DETERMINED to push that plunger ALL THE WAY - and if that's how you treat equipment, I don't think your gear is going to last very long anyway. Sorry to be so harsh, but figure things out before rushing to write a bad review.

I was a bit confused on how to use it at first but I managed to get it working on my Nikon FM10. So for those who have something in that similar lineup of Nikon brand model cameras there’s a good chance it could work on yours too. Just check to see if there’s a tiny hole on your shutter button that works for shutter release cables. That’s my two cents.
