HOW MANY SHUTTER ACTIVATIONS?
2008348
Daniel, Shutter actuations (not activations) is not a critical issue when it comes to professional styled cameras. The D300 is rated for 150K before it might fail. Might is the operative word. Most of these types of cameras go well beyond their stated actuations.

Unless you shoot 500 pictures a day, 365 days a year, you are going to replace this camera before that becomes an issue.

I have two Nikon D300 bodies. One of them has over 119,000 actuations. It only cost around $250 to replace a shutter anyway. The other has over 44.000 actuations.

Yes, you can add as many triggers as you want but can be in no more than 3 groups. I have had these for over a year and they have worked just great. I also have one of the cheaper odin triggers that I use just for triggering a flash for background that I set manually

Don't know. The init only worked for a few months. Did not buy another one. You probably cannot do multiple photos.

When I bought this camera 2 years ago it was brand new in box. The shutter count was zero. So far I've put 4600 clicks on my camera.

7 in a row & after that, shutter speed will decrease. 3,5 seconds for first 7 pictures.

I'm not sure of how many shots you would get but I have taken over 200 pictures on full charge using both display and some flash and have more than 50% remaining. Once the display is closed facing the camera it will be off but the viewfinder will be on.

yes - there is a menu option under "multiple exposure", where it shoots up to 9 exposures for one shutter release. In addition to combining the shots into a merged artsy photo, if set properly, it can also save the individual images

Hi,Each pack for sale has 8 exposures inside, if you need more you will need to purchase 2 packs.

When I sold my three D3s, they each had between 28,000 and 34,000 actuations. The shutter is designed for mean time to failure for 300,000 actuations.

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.

Indeed, the camera hasn't got a "total number of shots" counter accessible to the user.Mine has nulled the file-numbering three times though, so I know I have over 30 000 shots on it.- It has been semi-retired now for the 5d Mk III, so it will only operate as a backup camera in the future (still working perfectly though)

When I use the wireless triggers, I usually go manual. In TTL mode you can increase the exposure by using the +/- function on your camera.

Just one. Works well. Easy to use slides on top of the mini ttl. I use canon and just switched to the ex 60 system to minimize the amount of gear I have to carry and put together out in the field. The canon system doesn't have the range of pw but all settings are on camera. I do travel photo and minimized gear is best for me. I still use PW for studio portraits.

There are not really any for sure instructions I would say other than turning them off or on. They should automatically receive the 3D signal when it's started and if you look at a light or bulb that is on when you hit the power button you'll see the shutter change. If it this doesn't work it's defective, I had the same problem happen

Yes, you can. There is a toggle mode where it stays on one camera for 5 or 10 seconds and then switches to the other. It's nice that it's automatic!

Honestly, I have never counted the number of pictures taken before changing batteries, but I just put new ones in and I will keep track and let you know when I hit 30+. I have already taken 16. One thing I do know, when it starts flashing, it will continue to take pictures that need a flash for an additioal 10 to 15 pictures, it just takes longer to recharge so you cant take the pictures in a fast manor. Since I do not take moving subjects, this is not a problem for me. I take pictures frequently so I will return with the number of photos taken to make the icon start to flash. I will answer again at that time.

Put the camera in rapid fire, manual focus, out the trigger in bulb... hit it once and the shutter will stay engaged.That might work.
