Depend on which model, my D300 & D80 both use different model.

All major reputable store have it, it cost less than $100.

DIY for some Canon models costs less than $5 for material plus some time plus some experience with soldering iron

Check the details in Internet, if the cable release is nothing but a few switches you can easily DYI it. Gives some personal touch
