Shortcut
Cam-eye
Can't Post
Has anyone had problems with their cam-eye? I can't get it to turn on the camera and make it stay on. I press the red button the camera turns on and then shuts off. The cam-eye will turn it from record to standby. It also lights up all the colors in my eye that it should.. Maybe i am doing it wrong. Let me know if you have had problems like this ..
I had the same problem with mine once, I have a PC100 on the right side of the camera, there is a switch, Im not home to look at it right now, but the switch slides from left to right, if its all the way to the right, when I started the cam eye, it did exactly what you are describing turn on 5 sec then stop recording. IF you have the same camera or something similar, slide the switch to the left and try it again. If you press the record button on the camera will it keep recording or do the same thing. let me know

You do know that you have to have the camera in the ON position for that to work right? Then you can turn most off with the Cam Eye II, and use it to re-activate the camera.
Probably a feature not compadible with the newer "slide" switch cameras.....
You mean I have to turn on the camera by the switch and then shut it off by the cam-eye for this to work right. Then I will be able to shut it off and on by the button
