Re: Shutter release extension for SeaLife Flex-Connect tray system

The trigger mechanism you refer to must be mounted to the top of a rigid post as shown below from your reference. You could mount the bottom of such a post to the tray cross member that fits under your camera and then mount your flexible arm to the top of the rigid post above the trigger plate. You may have to re-drill or elongate the holes in the various mounting plates and get longer attach bolts, and in the worst case, make an intervening adaptor plate.

I also have a Fantasea housing with RX100iv and don't see how the trigger would work exactly with it.  I would be more inclined to make my own custom design.
