Cloudhopper61 1 #1 May 9, 2016 I have purchased a Sony NEX-C3 camera as my first for still photography work. I have 286 jumps and am 14 accuracy jumps away from my C license. This camera was recommended by Dave Parker, the S&TA at my drop zone. Sadly, it is the NEX-C3A that seems to be simple to find remote switches for. My camera has a mini USB port instead of the micro USB port on a NEX-C3A. I have purchased several adapters, some of them quite expensive, still with no ability to trigger my lens. Is there a tongue or bite switch available anywhere for my camera? I have spent 2 or 3 months trying to find something that will work, and I am desperate. Please, someone make me look really stupid for not coming here first. Thanks!Dude, should we be doing this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 3N was pretty common, and you could get an off the shelf switch for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
