I do not know of any current compact that will accept a screw-in cable shutter release but SRB Griturn can supply a universal cable release bracket to fit most suitable cameras.
The Nikon V1/V2 uses a wireless remote control and the 10-30mm kit lens has a 40.5mm filter thread. I use a V1 and 10-30mm attached to my Swarovski scope with a DCA adaptor.

Thanks Mike, I did see the SRB-Griturn shutter release adaptor but felt that it would probably get constantly knocked out of alignment to the shutter button when being put in and out of pockets, bag etc.
The wireless remote sounds perfect. Is the DCA adaptor form SRB-Griturn or is that another make?

Yes, you are right about the SRB adaptor. It works very well but is easily knocked out of alignment which can be a real pain.
The DCA is made by Swarovski designed to fit their ATS, STS, ATM and STM model scopes. It is a two-part tube/sleeve, one part fits over the scope eyepiece and the other screws onto the filter thread of the camera lens. It comes with four adaptor rings from 28mm to 52mm to suit the majority of lens threads. I use mine with a 40.5 (V1 10-30mm lens thread) to 52mm stepping ring.
The attached image shows my setup including a cable release bracket (not made by SRB).

Thanks Mike....so the Nikon thread is 40.5mm? (slightly confused by the V1 10-30mm lens thread comment above - I presume the thread can only be one diameter). I think SRB do similar adaptors to step camera to eyepiece so can check.

Hello Mike.
Can you let me know where I can buy the shuter release braket that you use with V1.
Thank you

Delfin,
This is the Nikon Remote

It's common and should be easy to find as it works with many Nikon models , going back to the Nikon P6000.
You'll find though with the burst mode with the V1 up to 60 fps in raw that you wont need the remote very often.
