You don't have any problems with "ripple"? (that's what we call it in Denmark -
sounds kinda english, so I assume it is). You know, where in fact pushing the
contact generates not just a single - but an unintended sequence of rather
short contacts, before the connection is permanent.
Also, does anyone have the exact, electrical specs on the winder2 - in
particular the electrical characteristics of this "interface"/plug, where the
M.grip cord is plugged?
I could ask more specifically: what currency is required through the wire in
order for the camera to fire? Yes, I am initially wondering how long I can make
it and which cable I should be using....
