So, Dann-Oh

How's it going with your shutter release problem?

Honestly, I haven't given it much thought lately.  Between being out of work and this whole Covid scare I haven't been thinking about scuba diving at all.  But I just took this reminder to take a few sample photos to share with you guys.

This is the basic camera rig

This is how I typically hold the rig with my left hand, non- shooting hand

This is the placement of my right hand, shooting hand when taking a photo.

I know shutter releases are unique to each camera so I am not expecting SeaLife to have something that will work for every camera but I would like to try to find something I can use that won't block the attachment port for when I upgrade to a second light.

Daveco2, how easy do you think it would be to add a few slots to the side of your trigger release so I could attach it to the grip portion of my tray with a hose clamp or a few zipties?  If you have the means to make one Id be happy to pay for materials and time.
