  1. Thanks for all the replies. I found an article on the 100 and 120 in the December 1986 issue of Sport Parachutist which used to be the british magazine. Unfortunately no photo - would anybody have a link to one? http://www.garywainwright.co.uk Instagram gary_wainwright_uk
  2. Many thanks for that! http://www.garywainwright.co.uk Instagram gary_wainwright_uk
  3. I've tried google, parachute history and this site but I can't find anything. I did read that the first attempts were organised by Roger Nelson in 1981 but did not complete. Does anybody know? Many thanks gary http://www.garywainwright.co.uk Instagram gary_wainwright_uk
  4. I use the normal conceptus tongue switch with an adapter to the N3 plug (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CANON-RS-60E3-jack-to-RS-80N3-plug-Convert-Adapter-/110674424153?hash=item19c4b5b159:g:vAYAAOSwcu5URgZt) The reason for this is so I can use the same bite switch with either a; rebel, 6D (which has the same socket as the Mkiii) with adaptor Olympus Pen with a different adapter. I don't use autofocus so not sure if this would still work if thats a consideration for you? http://www.garywainwright.co.uk Instagram gary_wainwright_uk
  5. Thanks Fordy! Really useful update. Might just hold off for a bit on switching from canon http://www.garywainwright.co.uk Instagram gary_wainwright_uk
