The camera will go onto the skywatchers but I think it only comes with a cable for canon. I personally don't use the cable that comes with it. I use a canon intervelometer cable and set the sky watcher separately.

The mount itself fits any camera. Depending on your camera, you may need a different sync cable if you want the mount to control the shutter but I generally use the mount simply to hold the camera and a dedicated trigger (intervalometer) to control the shutter because I have a Sony camera and the sync cable for sony isn't easily available. Short answer, yes, but bring your own timelapse shutter cable. Searching Amazon for Nikon Intervalometer will find some for you.

You'll need a sync cable for the Nikon model you have. Do an online search. I found this. You might also search the Celestron website."SkyWatcher Electronic Shutter Release Cable AP-R1N (N1)This electronic shutter release cable allows you to attach your digital SLR camera to the SkyWatcher AllView Multi Function Computerised mount. This particular cable is designed for use with Nikon digital SLR cameras with a 10 pin type remote socket such as the Nikon D3 series, D200, D300, D300S and D700 cameras."

On my d90 and d3300, it does take longer intervals. The idea is that this will hit the shutter release button for you at any time interval you set, so u can put it on any setting. But make sure to have the focus on manual or it'll refocus every shot before taking it.

The answer you want depends on the camera. With some it works fine, with some, there is no TTL functioning. Find info on the camera you intend to use and check specifically on that camera. I use mine for a remote flash triggered by an inexpensive radio remote. I do not use it on my D7000 DSLR. I do not know which film cameras are compatible besides earlier Nikon models.

Yes, you can insert the date and time on the shots you take. See the link below for p. 59 of the User's Guide. I am a casual camera user, not an expert, but I have really enjoyed using this camera.http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/9/0300004679/01/PSA3300IS_A3200IS_A2200_CUG_EN.pdfVZ Fuisher

My wife and I bought this camera for a trip we took to Italy, I worked out great, we took several hunder pictures but I never noticed a delay. Make sure you use at least a class 10 SD card and i believe you will be satisfied.

Yes. You will have to experiment with the included spacers so you can use the flash and press the button to take pictures. Be Patient!!! Use a fully charged battery and an empty memory card. And! Have a great time!!

Best if you go to nikon website and download the manual. I have a D700 and it won't do TTL.

Yes you should. You can use autofocus as you learn in the inns and outs, I Would suggest the idiots guide to this camera in addition, and with a little curiosity, reading and patience, you will see your photographic voice grow at a rapid pace.

Yes. You can set the date and time and then select whether to stamp date or date & time.It's a good camera. I have to remind myself where the lens is and to keep my finger away from it. The lens also does not have a protective cover.I still like the camera a lot.

I'd recommend it as a backup camera yes. It is a good starter camera for someone new to the dslr format. It has served me well over the 2 years I've had mine.

Yes, you will shoot in manual or in aperture priority. It will be a non TTL setup.

It depends on what you are used to. I primarily shoot with a DSLR, and thus I definitely notice a lag. It isn't terrible, but you can't do burst shooting, so this issue tends to be less in the delay to shoot, but the processing delay after you shoot. it also depends a lot on the mode. Modes such as HDR, museum, etc can take quite some time as the shot is processed. E.g., I just took 500 photos of hummingbirds with my DSLR -- i would never do that with the Nikon. But, I don't like taking my DSLR near the waves, and with the Nikon you can take it anywhere.

YES! I use a d7000, and its a great combo! http://www.flickr.com/photos/93243062@N05/9441546218/

You can use it but only in Manual Mode! TTL Will not work, any kind of flash, canon, nikon or the new hot shoe sony's, but i recomend to you the Yongnuo

I used it on a D3100. When it worked, it was fine, but it was not reliable, especially in iTTL mode. It would overexpose quite a lot. I had to return two units before I gave up on it. I DO have a manual YN-560 III that is great, especially for the price, but I think you need at least one authentic Nikon in your kit. I ended up taking the plunge and getting an SB-700 and I don't regret it all. Flashes, like lenses, will last you a long time.

There is a timelapse feature in EOS Utility - a FREE program that comes with the camera on the EOS Solution Disk. The Camera Settings/Remote Shooting selection has a timed setting where you can do interval shooting for timelapse.

What if you're trying to take pics of kids who never slow down long enough for the shutter lag to catch up...is this a good camera for it?
