Seafrog Salted Line Micro USB Trigger

Hi everyone,

The shutter release trigger for my Seafrog SALTED line UW housing has busted. It looks like the cables in the multi terminal micro USB port have come unstuck. I've tried purchasing a replacement but it only triggers the focus and not the shutter. I am using a Sony A6500.

Does anyone know where I can purchase a 90-degree multi terminal cable with female AUX input?

Thanks for any help

JUNK: Seafrog Salted Line Micro USB Trigger

The sea frogs stuff is JUNK.  I bought both the rx100 and a9 housings.  Both didn't last more than a couple uses.  NO ONE SHOULD BUY ONE.

I tried the tech support; equally laughable.  Accused me of mis -loading their housing       ( I have 15 years experience) and wanted a video of me loading it "correctly".   Which I did give them with multiple pictures and then wouldn't "grant" a return,  pathetic.

They got my 1000 bucks- including a second trigger.

Do yourself a favor if you gamble on one of these housings:  buy on amazon so you can return it when it leaks.

Dunno what you were doing, but I have well over a hundred dives on mine with no leaks or other issues.

I never had any problem with mine.  But, the USB port on my a6300 went bad so I could not use the trigger release on that camera but it ended up working just fine on my a6000.
