Nikon P80
I bought one and am learning to use it. I wanted something that I did not have to buy more lens. So far, the only deficit is that I cannot attach a remote button to it.
Anyone have any experience with one yet.?

I cannot figure out how I might connect a remote to the P80. I will go look at the MC-DC1. Only possibility is the audio-out connection (USB)

Doesn't the P80 have infrared remote capability?

Yeah, and it was panned in one blog for not having one. I have not given up yet!

if you're just wanting the camera to be steady, you can use the self timer.

Directly from this NIKON page.....
http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Ni...page?pid=25412
Under the "tech Specs" tab...
Looking at plug, I'd say it plugs into the (mini B) USB connector........

Oh no........ Its the P80 you are looking for a remote for... I was thinking it was D80 for some silly reason.... Maybe it was because I was looking at D80 and misread what you have typed...
Now I am afraid I've given you false hopes.... I so sorry....

I will let you know if the MC-DC1 works. It looks like it has the same connector as the AC adapter for the P80.
