Motion sensor trigger for triggering shutter
Hi everyone Got my head down and managed to get to maplins yesterday and with some great and kind help from Mattmatic got a list of electronics bits and pieces with a view to try to assemble an IR sensor kit to trigger my flash and also the shutter for my K20. I am now looking for some diagram...

Any chance you could use the infra red? You can buy a generic remote from eBay and use that. Personally I would be very wary about wiring directly into the camera. Anything happens and you'd be on your own!

My first move would be to get hold of a Pentax cable release. From this you could work out what the camera is expecting from the cable to fire. Once you know that, it should be possible to work something out with the PIR.

Motion sensor trigger for triggering shutter
Think I shall stop there, I have a very twisted sense of humour :) I once made a remote control for my Nikon F301. I looked at the connections and noticed that contact was made by a pin and the metal surroundings. I took the servos out of an old radio control car and made a small box that velcroe...
