Help! Canon 10D/Inon Z-220

1 posts
  1. Hi all,

     

    I have a Canon 10D in a Jonah housing. The Jonah housing has all 6 pins wired to the S6 bulkhead, but only 2 wired to the Nik V bulkhead.

     

    I'm trying to get the nifty features of the Inon Z220 to work with my Jonah housed 10D -- 2 pins does not allow the focusing light nor the targeting laser to work, according to Ryan of UWCP who tested this with a Sea&Sea housing. However, we know that Nikon D100 users that have all 5 hotshoe pins hooked up have access to the functions.

     

    Hence, I'm looking for anyone with information as to which of the 6 Canon hotshoe pins is 'safe' to hook up/experiment with without blowing up my 10D. One option that is on the books is to modify the N5 connector so that I can experiment with connecting each of the 6 pins. The other option is to get a S6-N5 cable from Seacam (it is listed on their price list and is probably designed for Subtronic/Seaflash strobes). However, I would love to know which of the 6 pins is left out in the S6 - N5 cable.

     

    Any help would be much appreciated!
