I have a D200 and love it. But I have a question and have been unable to
get an answer. Is it possible to attach a receiver to the camera so that
the shutter can be tripped from a distance via a small radio
transmitter. The only thing I can find is some info on a transmitter
that attaches to the camera and broadcasts WII. That is not what I am
after. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks,

I think the ML-3 will do the job.

If you are asking about an RF transmitter/receiver combo Nikon doesn't make
one specifically for the D200. You can buy the MC-22 cable and hook it up
to whatever type of trigger device your imagination comes up with.

If you are looking for a short distance IR solution you can get the ML-3.

Check to see if the ML-3 will work on the D200, may not, but I'm not
positive. There are Chinese built radio controls on Ebay, one of the
brand names is Adidt. Worth a look, I have heard of them referred to on
other boards.

Good luck
Tom

This should do the trick!

Thank you very much Preston, I do think that is exactly what I am
looking for. I searched B&H web site earlier and could find nothing,
then I received their catalogue and couldn't find anything there
either. Guess I was not using the proper search criteria. LOL
