Thought I'd share my USB cable-release:



Uses a magnetic switch from a security door, in order to avoid having to touch anything touching the camera.

Shouldn't be really a problem to do this, I think you need only basic electronic skills to do something like that,
right now I do it with my old unused Lego RCX Microcontroller and a small Voltage regulator.
But I'm sure that can be done with only a small rc5 receiver.

Right now I have other things to do: holydays end tomorrow, school is waiting for me  :(

Witch switch should I use in the remote cable?

- Switch what close the curcuit when I push the button or
- Switch what close the curcuit when I push the button and hold closed til I push again or
- Switch what close the curcuit for a moment only?

whitch is the best for the remote cable?
