I have more info on that zoom lever issue that I mentioned above and maybe you can give me a suggestion. It only happens on my DIY power-supplies that I built, where I use one of those 12v/5v bricks and then a step-down dealy that takes it from 5v to 3.7v.
When I use any one of those, I built 3, that's when I get the zoom lever issue. That's the only know issue that I have with my DIY power-supplies. Could it be that it doesn't like the voltage or something like that? Thanks.
The dealy looks like this:
OK, I'll do some experimenting with this issue. I also built 3 other DIY power-supplies, and they provide an even 4.10v so I'll see if the issue happens with those and write back later. Thanks.
Well, all of those little dealys I bought say they put out 3amp so that should be enough. It's probably just my sketchy wiring.
How do I 'put a meter on the pins' as you say above, to measure the load.

That's a good question. I guess I'll find out. Hope it isn't a lot and ruins my camera. I did get condensation once from a -20 day when I brought the cam into the house but it went away after a few hours. Of course we're talking winter in that case and not summer.Water will condense of the coldest object as the temperature drops below the dew point. When the outside temp drops, that will tend to be the case rather than the camera. At least I think that's the theory. So what you need is something like the "Rainex" solution that was discussed here to prevent the water from beading up and forming droplets on the window the lens is shooting through. Either that or a much bigger battery and a 25 watt power resistor to act as a heater...
