But Geoff said he can't do it 'on this machine'...

When taking a pic for a specific purpose, why not just set the camera to the pixel size best suited?

Right - I think those are known as Equipment outlets. I have one on a Yamaha amp. Sort of pre-dates IEC connectors, in Japan at least. Had the very devil of a job finding a plug for one years ago - and could only find a two pin. The easiest answer might be to change those outlets for IEC ones.

Nope, it's to the left of that (It's not the mains connector).

That's not a bad Samsumg camera (ES55?), but looks like the photographer is broken.

er, opps... ;-)

The camera was repaired by an idiot who is supposed to know about such things, and I have never been happy with it since, so looks as that will go on recycle soon.

Sorry - so out of focus here I can't make them out. I'll need to send them to CSI. ;-)

Whatever. ;-)

Found a service manual here, it's $4.99

From that you'll find part numbers for the cable, though if it was me I'd be hacking inside, tracing the connections back (to acertain which is data and ground, and that they connect like that both ends) unsoldering the sockets and substituting with something cheap like minature molex (commonly used for PC interconnects).

But that's me :)

On the three cameras I use you can take it in full resolution and then save a copy at a lower resolution later if required.

I reduced the photos with irfanview at work today and sent them to tC.

I just don't have it on this machine, nor did I want to download it to this VM

Because I didn't think about it until after I'd taken the photos

and I'm a lazy bugger at times

Why not just post the photos I sent you today?

Although I haven't got a circuit diagram yet of the manual, some kind person donated to me the leads that I have been looking for as a result of me asking for help on these 2 groups. I am truly grateful for your assistance and all the information and help from others Jim G

I'd found this on the web:

(Description: This is the cable to connect to the green jacks on the back of most home electronics. This is used to allow remote operation. 30 Inches)

It seems to be a 3.5 to 3.5 mini-jack cable connection.

I hope it helps.

I'd have thought by now it is either solved or in the skip. I note a lot of makes of that vintage used similar leads for things like starting tape decks when the cd started and timer starting and even some remote control actions from one central unit to the others, but all are slightly different of course. a subtle ploy to keep the buyer in the home camp so to speak.
