[APML] Re(2): [APML] Nikon F3 Long Exposure

Very nice solution 
I just check it and works fine.
The battery power needs just for the timer (I removed after the start just to be sure)
You right when you say I don't need the cable release 
Because the self timer needs 10 sec to start the exposure
So any vibration will go away ..
But I plan to use auto guider and any press to the shutter
will force the auto guider to correct 
so I can use the cable it works ..!
Thanks
