the other connector you are referring to is for a flash. In the mean time I have the schematics for the connector, so I could use it ... but... hmm, I'm hesitating, the camera is much heavier than the canon, and more expensive and I already lost a camera helmet once..... including video camera... so I know how it feels :-( Iw ill go and experient a little bit, with both camera's. Will post results if there are any :-)
