The Low Battery Indicator (☐)

The low battery indicator (4) will blink when the batteries are low. Ready spare batteries.

Replacing Batteries

When replacing batteries:

1 Check that the "TIMER ACTIVE" (5) and "RELEASE" (8) indicators are not displayed (see right).
2 Turn the camera off and disconnect the MC-36.
3 Remove the batteries.
4 Wait until the control panel has gone out and insert new batteries.

When the MC-36 Is Not in Use

The MC-36 is not equipped with an off switch. To reduce the drain on the batteries when the MC-36 is not in use, end shooting and check that the "TIMER ACTIVE" (5), "SEI" (7), and "RELEASE" (8) indicators are not displayed (see right). The drain on the batteries increases when these indicators are flashing.

Disconnecting the MC-36

After checking that the "TIMER ACTIVE" (5) and "RELEASE" (8) indicators are not displayed, turn the camera off and disconnect the MC-36. Replace the 10-pin terminal cover.

Using the MC-36

The MC-36 functions as:

  • An automatic timer (pp. 8–14). Choose the delay (time before shooting starts), exposure time, interval, and number of shots for timed interval photography. Shutter speed can be selected with the camera if desired (pg. 14).
  • A manual release (pg. 15). Take photographs manually using the shutter-release button on the MC-36. Photographs can be taken manually even when the timer is running.

Setting the Timer

To ensure correct operation, choose an interval at least one second longer than the exposure time. When using autofocus, set the delay to two seconds or more and choose an interval at least two seconds longer than the exposure time to ensure that the camera has time to focus. When using long exposure noise reduction (available with some digital cameras), the interval should be at least twice the exposure time.

Intervals of 00:00:00 will automatically be reset to 00:00:01 when the SET button (⑥) is pressed to put settings into effect.

To set the number of shots to - - (unlimited), select 1 and press the arrow button (⑧) down or select 399 and press the arrow button up.

2.3 After adjusting all settings as desired, press the SET button (⑥) to put the new settings into effect. A beep will sound (if the speaker is on) and the "SET" indicator will go out.

NIKON MC-36 - Setting the Timer - 1

text_image DELAY LONG INTVL N 01:10'30" [20] SET DELAY LONG INTVL N 01:10'30" [20]

The new settings will remain in effect until changed or until the batteries are removed or exhausted.

3. Start the Timer

Press the TIMER START/STOP button (⑤). The timer will start and "TIMER ACTIVE" (⑤) will flash in the control panel. Between shots, the control panel will show the time remaining until the next photograph is taken. If the speaker is on, a beep will sound three times at one-second intervals before the shutter opens.

While the shutter is open, the control panel will show the time remaining until the shutter closes, and the release lamp and "RELEASE" indicator (8) will flash at one-second intervals. The number of shots remaining will be updated each time a photograph is taken.

Using the Camera to Select Shutter SpeedTo take photographs at the shutter speed selected with the camera, adjust settings as follows:
CameraExposure modeM (manual) or S (shutter-priority auto)
Shutter speedAny
Interval timerOff
Focus modeAF-C (continuous-servo autofocus)* or M (manual)
Shooting modeS (single frame)
MC-36Exposure time0 s
IntervalLonger than camera shutter speed†
* Select "release priority" if available.†When using autofocus, choose an interval at least two seconds longer than the camera shutter speed to allow the camera time to focus. When using long exposure noise reduction (available with some digital cameras), choose an interval at least double the camera shutter speed.

Using the Timer

Before using the timer for extended periods, check that the batteries have enough charge. Replace the batteries when the low battery indicator (☐) flashes in the control panel (4).

Manual Release

The MC-36 shutter-release button (⑨) functions in much the same way as the camera shutter-release button.

1. Adjust Camera Settings

Connect the MC-36 (pg. 7) and turn the camera on. Choose exposure mode, shutter speed, focus mode, and shooting mode as desired.

2. Take Pictures

2.1 Press the MC-36 shutter-release button (⑨) halfway and check focus and exposure, then press it the rest of the way down to take a picture. While the shutter is open, a beep will sound at one-second intervals, the "RELEASE" indicator (⑧) will flash, and

the control panel will show the time remaining until the shutter closes.

To keep the shutter-release button fully pressed for bulb photography, slide the button to the HOLD position. Slide it in the opposite direction to release the lock.

NIKON MC-36 - Take Pictures - 1

text_image HOLD

2.2 Release the button to end shooting.

The MC-36 shutter-release button can be used when no batteries are inserted. The control panel will remain off and no beep will sound.

The shutter-release button can be used to release the shutter manually while the timer is active. Timer count-down (including the control-panel display, release lamp, and beep) continues during manual release. If a manual release overlaps with an automatic release, the shutter will remain open until both exposure times have expired.

Precautions for Use

Check the camera battery level and number of exposures remaining before using the MC-36 (see the camera manual for details). The timer will continue to operate even when no pictures can be recorded due to low battery, lack or film or memory, or lack of space in the memory buffer (digital cameras only). An AC adapter (available separately) is recommended for longer sessions.

Some cameras have an AF activation option that determines whether the camera will focus when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway (see the camera manual for details). Enable shutter-release button AF-activation when using the MC-36.

Please note that the timer is less accurate than most watches or household clocks.

Caring for the MC-36

Do not drop: The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shocks or vibration.

Keep dry: This product is not waterproof and may malfunction if immersed in water or exposed to high levels of humidity. Rusting of the internal mechanism can cause irreparable damage.

Avoid sudden changes in temperature: Sudden changes in temperature, such as occur when entering or leaving a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation inside the device. To prevent condensation, place the device in a carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in temperature.

Keep away from strong magnetic fields: Strong static charges or the electromagnetic fields produced by equipment such as radio transmitters could interfere with the device.

A note on electronically-controlled devices: In extremely rare instances, unusual characters may appear in the control panel and the device may stop functioning. In most cases, this phenomenon is caused by a strong external static charge. Turn the camera off, disconnect the MC-36, remove the batteries, and then replace them once the control panel has turned off. Caution is required when handling the batteries, which may be hot from use. In the event of continued malfunction, contact your retailer or Nikon representative.

The control panel: LCD displays tend to darken at high temperatures and exhibit slower response times at low temperatures. This does not indicate a malfunction.
