Still photo switch

Recommended Posts

To post your favorite tease, I've posted another on Skydiving Talk Back. This is serious statistical analysis folks. Future photographers depend on this info.

And I'm still recovering from the bad muscle cramps induced by laughing non-stop.:D

My other ride is the relative wind.

I use a bite switch as my primary. I use a hand swith to fire my second still, if it is mounted. I've been looking at a CamRL for a while, but have not gotten around to buying one... Anyone actually using one of these?

I use a hand switch, the convenience factor of a bite or blow switch is nice (not having to route the chord through your jumpsuit every time you add stills), on the other hand every type of hand or blow switch goes through more abuse (saliva teeth etc.). For me the hand switch lasts longer and has proven more reliable. Besides when using two stills it's relatively easy to add another hand switch (two switches side by side).

Just some thoughts,
Michael

I would agree with the hand switch for two stills
I can have mounted a 35mm SLR & Pentex 645 medium format still camera’s & a video camera with my helmet set up.
I have both of the shutter releases together on my left hand.
For the Pentex 645 I use my thumb for the 35mm I use my middle finger
