What lens did you use?
I think that this is meant to dampen harmonics in the long lens tube which can be activated by even a slight breeze. Worth trying!While a remote release is often a good idea, with long lenses some photographers will squeeze carefully with one hand on the camera grip and one hand resting gently on the lens to dampen vibrations. It's worth testing your setup both ways with a static subject and seeing what gives you a sharper result.
