How do I set my D3100 camera to use this remote shutter release?

On the left side of camera, I opened the rubber protector thing, sorry not savy, and it plugged into there like a USB port, that's it...

Make sure your batteries are in the right way for one. Then just plug into the side of the camera were it says GPS and other symbols

I think so. I bought it for my d3100, but it should work. I discovered that I probably don't need it, I got it to do panoramic shots on a rotating ballhead. A remote shutter release will do the same thing, unless you're wanting to set it and leave it.

Indirectly, yes. In manual mode with the shutter set to bulb, change release mode to remote. Press remote button to start the exposure, press again to stop.

I am also looking for a remote for my D3100, but according to the Nikon website this one is not compatible with this camera. Look for it on the official website and you will see that the only remote for this camera is the MC-DC2, but unfortunately it is not wireless.

Hello Robert:Not sure if I can answer your question specifically. My Nikon is a D3100. The RFN-4 remote shutter release came with a cable that went between the remote's receiver and the camera. It plugged into a small rectangular receptacle on the D3100 that was located behind a hinged flap. FYI, The receiver can be used as a wired cable release just like in the old days (though it's an electrical switch rather than a mechanical push/pull cable). You may be handy enough with computers to find out if the receptacles on a D3100 are the same as a D600. FWIW, after I figured it out, mine works fine. The supplied batteries were dead.

I'm not sure what your're trying to do. I haven't used this in years, but I don't "program", I only use it for shutter release button.I used this with Canon 7D. My guess is what the "delay remote" is to set your camera to delay shooting, like 2 seconds or 10 seconds is the norm.

Make sure you read the manual on how to set it to remote. However, personally I had a horrible experience with this IR Remote. I sent it back and went with the Nikon version. Works better.

Yes, it functions just like the shutter release button on the camera. I have the D3100.

On my D810 the with the camera in "Bulb" mode, push and hold the button and after a second or two you can release the button and the shutter will stay open. Tapping the button again will close the shutter to end the exposure

Sure. I have done that but I set the camera to manual and set the exposure time there. This remote has a way to change the exposure time so you may be able to do it all from the remote.

depends on the shooting mode your camera is in also. I use manual mode for normal settings, then single shot shooting mode, and what ever program on the remote i like to use.

Randy you will have to set your camera to auto mode then set it for 2 seconds timer that's when the remote controls will work

Check your owners manual for the specific shutter setting for remote. After you get the right setting, you may have to try different angles for pointing the remote at the "sweet spot" on the camera.

I have a D300s and D800. It works the same as the normal shutter release on both. For Bulb mode exposures I like to use the MC-36 u trip the shutter to lockup and a few second later trip the timer and u can pre program how long u want the shutter to remain open. And don't have to hold the button. Automatic. I use the witless remote out to 30 seconds. The witless device works great for me.

Hi, Buddy, it works great with my D3100, as a remote shutter as well as flash trigger.

I have a D3100 and it works just fine. If the 3200 is like the 3100 you have a rubber cover on the left end of the camera body. Open it up and ther will be 4 jacks therr. There is a A/V jack on the bottom, then a HDMI, USB, and a GPS on top. This shutter release will plug into the top GPS jack. I hope that answers your question.
