Why am I losing communication between corded remote shutter release and camera?
Sounds like you have a smart or programmable shutter release - so a fault could happen at either end of the cable - or the cable itself.
possible causes:
bad battery in the shutter release. try replacing it with a tested new one.
Cable issues, though intermittent. I presume that the cable is not removable from the portion where it can be set. If you try this on another camera body and you have the same problems (and it isn't the battery), then it is either the 'brain' in the control unit or the cable - either of which means you need a new shutter release.
If it works on the other camera without failure, then it is either the plug or the brain of your camera body. If this is the case, recharge your camera battery and try again.
good luck.
Want to download user manual
Please go to Nikonusa dot COM. The camera is old. If you registered it you should be able to get the user manual. If not register it. When you have it registered you should be able to download the PDF. I also will say download as much as you can when it is new. You may see it has new firmware too.
