Step 6Making It Compatable With The Camera
Using the meter with a continuity test function, determine which of the 3 exposed leads is going to the centermost lead on the two-way switch and solder to the uninsulated wire on the 3/32" jack. If your wires are different than mine, this wire will be the one that is COMMON to both the focusing pair and the shutter pair.
Next, solder the wire from one pushbutton to the wire that activates the focus. The pushbutton you choose does not matter, I just chose the black one.
Finally, solder the remaining wire from the other pushbutton to the remaining wire from the jack. This will be the pushbutton that activates the shutter, so I chose to make it the red one. Then, to make it look pretty, heatshrink the whole mess together. Just don't forget to heatshrink the individual wires first so that they don't touch any other connections.
