Need to know if the trigger will start/stop video on a Nikon D3200, which uses a button other than the shutter release to start/stop video.

Well, on my D5300, the trigger doesn't start the video but it will stop it. You still have to push the red button by the on/off switch. Hope this helps.

No. This is just for taking a shot....Just a button on a piece of plastic that only works in front of the cam.. Go for something else.

Yes. On the turn dial on the backside of the camera, you will see a flash picture. If you press the dial in that direction, you are prompted with an interface on the screen to let you force the flash off. I've done it a few times. Works great.

All the early reviews so far have mentioned that they give you full Program, Aperture priority, Shutter priority, and Manual options when shooting video. They even let you use scene effect modes like monochrome while shooting video.So yes, manual controls for video are available. The only limitation I have heard with video (besides no audio-in jack) is that the in-camera Image Stabilization feature is disabled while shooting video. Using a lens that has it's own image stabilization works as expected though.

Video is accessed by pushing on a red button on the top of the camera. You can have the mode dial set to any of the modes-- including shutter-priority-- but I'm not sure if it really makes a difference or if, once video is engaged, it has its own setting. You might try going to a Panasonic website and posing that question there.

I have found all thebuttons to work, however I tend to only use the shutter release and occ. the selector wheel. The clock mode on the LCD is handy. I made a point to learn what they all are for when I first installed it, but have forgoten them since I dont use them any more. I still love this grip with the extended battery life and relocated shutter release.

It does have a trigger button for using the camera in the vertical format (one main reason I bought it), however, unlike OEM grips, this one requires a connection to the camera via an external cable that plugs into the accessory ports located under the rubber cover on the left side of the camera body. OEM units make the connection via the battery connection terminals. This is the reason I returned the item - the cable hangs out (and will catch on everything it touches), and the rubber flap over the accessory ports has to stay open. All in all it's a very amateur looking setup. Also, the grip itself is made from very cheap plastic unlike the camera body. Not at all recommended.

YES it does though it says the timer button .. you really have to hit the exposure button on the right side of the dial.I just made a video using the process today. I havent been able to take a shot while shooting video though...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY69KSvKoEk&list;=UUEjpSE4pOhftupgVjQw1UGA

The lower right button on the face of the controller next to the LCD triggers still photos.The button on the upper left corner of the controller (left of the antenna) turns video on or off.

This remote only has buttons to allow you to start and stop a video. However you can use the cursor to control your video if you have onscreen controls.

I do not have a D800, but there is a YouTube video showing the unit controlling both the camera as a remote and simultaneously triggering a studio strobe. In that case the unit on the camer hit shoe has to be hardwied to the camera body. If you are not triggering an off camera flash using a third unit, then the unit on the camera hotshot works as a receiver to fire the camera using the other unit in your hand.

It works with the D3200. Will not start or stop video recording... Pretty sure.

you can trigger it remotely, but it can't be used in E-TTL mode in that case (ie. you lose communication with the camera) unless it's connected with an off-camera cable that supports E-TTL. If you have a light meter or are comfortable setting up exposure manually it's not a big deal.

No you do not have to buy a remote trigger. It comes with a trigger that attaches to your camera's hot shoe to activate the flash. But they can also be set to slave and have them trigger off of your on camera flash, whether it is the built in or a speed light.

I used it on a D610. Plug one my first on broke when my kid twisted my camera. It worked really well before that. I then bought a second one and it quit working. It would focus the camera but not trigger the shutter. I confirmed this with a friend's D600. I sent it back to Rainbowimaging and waited... They did send me a new one and the replacement does work, but for my needs of just long exposures I'm going with a single button (with lock) dumb trigger.

This is a "dumb" trigger. It has no TTL capability. So you would need to use the flashes in manual mode.

Yes It is in the software. I couldn't tell you how to get there, but I have seen it there. Fortunately it isn't too complicated. The problem I have had is fat fingers hitting the wrong button and changing things while I am trying to work with the camera. The reason I know it does have a self timer is because I pushed the button that caused it at a moment when I did not have time to stop shooting so every shot I had to shoot waiting for the timer to count down.
