The best wireless remote I have ever used is my iPhone using the Nikon WMU app. the nice thing is that you can see what you are shooting.

Yes... it affects the wired... I assume... I use a radio trigger which gets plugged into the port of the camera... If I use it, I have to switch to manual focus, otherwise the trigger tries to "refocus" before firing the shutter... depending on whether that's good or not in your situation, you have to decide... I don't remember what it does using the little IR remote that Nikon produces...

i setup camera and phone, operation looks ok. Lots to learn about phone/ photo operation.
If your needs are simple, the ml-l3 will just take the picture with no refocusing if you are set for bbf. (Thats on my d7200, but it should be the same on the 750.) All I need it to do is just snap the picture. I'm either shooting the moon or the bird feeder when I use the remote. I pre-focus with the bb and shoot as needed with the remote. The app is nice, but for what I do, the little remote is fine. My phone struggles to hold a charge a full day anyway so its best left in my pocket. You can get a knock-off ml-l3 for <$10 on Amazon or ebay if you want to try it.
I need to see if the app works on my tablet, that could be a handy setup. Kind of cool to touch the screen and focus.

if you have a smartphone download the Nikon WMU app and give it a try. you can touch on the phone where you want it to focus if I am not mistaken. Distance is great with the app. Best of all it is free so it will not cost you anything to give it a try
