martz 0 #1 December 17, 2004 I received my Canon EOS Rebel ... I guess that's an old model (1995) and I don't find any jack to get a tongue switch ... How do I connect it ?? Do I have to get a jack soldered inside ?? If so ... any pics ?? Thanks a lot=============================== Ourson # 5 impatient de sauter # 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VisionAir 0 #2 December 17, 2004 On the side of the grip, just under the shutter release button, you should see a little plastic plug that you can remove to plug in a remote shutter release. Huh?!? What cloud?!? Oh that!!! That's just Industrial Haze Alex M. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #3 December 17, 2004 I made the same mistake. The original EOS Rebel does not have a jack for an external shutter release. Pretty much any other EOS Rebel , eg, the Rebel-S, -M, G, Ti, or whatever will work fine. The original Rebel - with no modifying letters does not. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead.

martz 0 #4 December 17, 2004 Do I understand than I cannot plug a switch ... ??? The only thing I can do is to sell it ???=============================== Ourson # 5 impatient de sauter # 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #5 December 17, 2004 If you've got the original Canon EOS Rebel, then no - you can not plug a switch. That feature is available in every other model. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #6 December 17, 2004 I'm confused. In another thread you found a Rebel "S". The rebel "S" Does take a switch... Do you have the Rebel "S" or the plain "Rebel" ? _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe you can have someone make a mod on it to plug your switch in...

martz 0 #8 December 18, 2004 unfortunatly for me ... that's a Plain Rebel , not S, G or 2000. I think I made a big mistake, now I have a still wich I cannot use for skydiving .. anyone interested to buy it ?? Maybe I'll try to modify it ...=============================== Ourson # 5 impatient de sauter # 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martz 0 #9 December 20, 2004 I found how to modify it to add a remote shutter release. So it will work for me ... :))=============================== Ourson # 5 impatient de sauter # 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
