[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 365024, member: 9240"] OK, here's something. I went to use my Vello Freewave remotes this morning to capture the lunar eclipse and they weren't working on my D7100. Not wanting to miss things I put in my wired remote and shot away (pics later). This post reminded me to check it so I plugged into my D610 and they weren't working there either - neither with the remote or with the button on top. For curiosity sake I swapped the connector cable and [I]bam[/I], everything worked. This is the same cable I used (and previously tested) on my D610 with the flash triggers. After some play it seems that it's not a tight fit and with some jiggling at the jack end it works fine. When I tested it I was shooting handheld and it's [I]possible[/I] that my hand position caused the cable to be pressed in place more firmly on the side of the camera, but once on the tripod there was nothing to do that. Just a theory that will need to be tested later. The suspect cable came with the Yongnuo trigger where the cables that work are Vellos. More to come. [/QUOTE]
