Nikon has announced that it is developing a new remote grip, the MC-N10 for Nikon Z-mount cameras, such as the Nikon Z9. The remote grip uses a wired cable to connect to the camera, and provides remote control of the camera, with shutter release, and other controls, so that the camera can be controlled when used on a video cage or other setup.
The Nikon MC-N10 also includes a back AF-On button, front and rear command dials, a joystick, plus buttons to access the i control panel, the menu system, playback, and display, as well as zoom controls.
Prices, release date, and availability is not yet known – we’ll update this when we know more. At the time of publication, the MC-N10 has not yet been added to Nikon’s website.
