Well I finally got around to doing something Ive been meaning to do for some time.

I cut my Canon 0c-e3 shoe cord in half.



Fear not my friends. Using what tools I had on hand and some nifty soldering skills I picked up modding xbox controllers. I soon breathed new life into this cable. It shall now serve a greater purpose.

I added 6pin mini din connectors to the ends of both my oc-e3 and a cat6 cable NOW I have a little over 20 feet to play with so that I can take cool shots like THIS !!!

Good idea to make removable extension cable to that, i didnt put eny plugs to mine and i made it bit shorter. U could get even longer cable to that allso, but if u make it over 5 meters long flash might not work other than manual settings.

I don't really understand sad.gif Get how you connected the chords (have no idea what the chords are) and everything, but don't get how you actually take the picture.
