Oppilas wireless remote control with OM-1
2

Some years ago I bought the Pixel Oppilas wireless remote control for use with Panny cameras. This device can be used with other camera types by changing to a suitable alternative version the cable linking device and camera . There was a version sold for Olympus cameras, but the cable supplied did not work with the OM-1. Having now acquired an OM-1, I looked online for advice on whether a suitable cable was available.

After a long and fruitless search, almost by chance in a discussion on another forum I found a suggestion that a particular cable type might work. Having bought a cable of this type, I'm happily able to advise that the remote control does now work on the OM-1.

The cable required is a STEREO 2.5mm male jack to 2.5 male jack cable. From eBay I bought one 30cm long which is *just* long enough to connect the device mounted in the flash socket and reach round to the OM-1's port.

I hope this info may be of use to other users of this remote control.

regards, Steve
