linestretch 0 #1 May 28, 2004 Ok, after 5 years of using a hand switch, I'm switching to a tongue switch, and would love to see some pics of some switches that others have made, and have had success with.my pics & stuff! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #2 May 28, 2004 There's really not a whole lot of reason to make one other than just wanting to do it yourself. Conceptus makes some mighty fine tongue switches. http://www.conceptusinc.com/tongueswitch.htmquade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diablopilot 2 #3 May 28, 2004 I've gone the otherway and find the hand switch far more accurate.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
linestretch 0 #4 May 28, 2004 I don't see the need to spend the money on something I know I can make. I just want some ideas of what other folks are using.my pics & stuff! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
linestretch 0 #5 May 28, 2004 the reason for bagging the hand switch is that I'm finding filming tandems on my back, I use my hands a LOT. I only found this out from going with tandems and NOT taking pics. Then, after about 30 jumps without the camera, it's sorta screwing me up. Make any sense? It does for me.my pics & stuff!

diablopilot 2 #6 May 28, 2004 Yeah I can see what you're saying, but I still am liking the hand switch. I just got a new type of switch from a friend to test, could be used either way, and looks tought. We'll see how it goes.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

koz2000 1 #8 May 28, 2004 Before I went digital, I was using a homemade switch on a Minolta. I got a switch from Radio Shack and fixed it to the old hand remote that came with the camera. Then lots of gaffers tape around the connection to give you something to bite on. D______________________________________________ - Does this small canopy make my balls look big? - J.
