Harbortronics Coolpix Serial Cable

The DigiSnap 2000 series requires a serial connection to utilize the shutter release. Many compatible digital cameras come with the required serial cable, except the Nikon CP990, 995, 880, 885, 4300, 4500, 5000, 5400, 5700, and 8700. A serial cable for these cameras must be purchased separately. If your camera is not listed, please check our compatibility page for the required connector. (Compare to the Nikon Brand (SC-EW3 $30).)

Foot Switch (2200)

Trigger your camera with your foot, keeping your hands free for other tasks. High quality footswitch has cable that plugs into the DigiSnap 2200.

Bite Switches and Tongue Switches

Bite Switches and Tongues Switches now available from Conceptus Camera Switches. Choose the size to fit you DigiSnap 2200 or 5000/5700. The DigiSnap 2200 accepts a 3.5 mm while the 5000 series accepts a 2.5 mm plug.

SnapUSB A/B Cable

Standard 10 foot USB A/B Cable. Connects USB peripherals to a PC or USB hub.

FastSnap

The FastSnap feature improves the responsiveness of the camera / controller in some limited applications. When FastSnap is enabled, the camera is set to the Half-Press state immediately after each image is taken, so that when the DigiSnap is subsequently triggered, the shutter is released very quickly (on the order of 1/10 sec). Note that this feature is only supported by cameras that use extended protocol, such as the later models of the Nikon Coolpix series. Most applications permit the photographer to control the Half and Full press states of the camera manually, or do not require the minimum trigger delay. FastSnap was developed in particular for sports photography, where a camera & DigiSnap might be mounted behind a basketball backboard, and triggered via an RF slave, such as the PocketWizard.

External Power Modification

Most DigiSnap 2000 models use an internal AAA alkaline battery. This may not be enough power for long term time-lapse applications. The external power modification substitutes a rechargable alkaline battery, and provides an AC wall adapter to keep it charged. Note that the DigiSnap 2500 and 2800 can be powered from an external regulated 5V supply, and the 2800 can also be powered from an unregulated 6V - 16V power source.

Low Temperature Modification

The DigiSnap has been used in many applications to well below freezing, but for operation to about -25C, we can modify the DigiSnap, substituting some temperature sensitive components.

Palm Mod

If you have a Palm/ HandSpring computer that you would like to use for advanced configuration of your DigiSnap 2x00, select this option and we'll modify your DigiSnap. You will be able to connect your DigiSnap, using the hot sync cable, with no other adapters.

MultiSnap

The MultiSnap feature causes the camera to take multiple (1..255) pictures each time the DigiSnap is triggered manually, or during time-lapse operations. This allows use of the Auto-Bracketing feature of the Coolpix cameras! It is also often used for motion control applications, such as with the Snap360.

RC Switch Modification

A number of customers use the DigiSnap to control cameras mounted on small blimps, large kites, and RC controlled airplanes and helicopters. We can modify any of the DigiSnap 2000 controllers with an additional 6 pin cable, for connection to a set of 'RC Switches'. These are devices connected to a standard RC receiver which provide simple switch outputs, rather than the normal servo type signal. This then allows for radio remote operation of the camera system from the ground, allowing control over 5 different functions.

STL Preface Feature

This feature is useful for a limited number of applications, such as underwater time-lapse photography. In some applications, a long initial delay is desired between triggering the DigiSnap, and the actual start of the picture sequence. When STL Preface is enabled, the DigiSnap will take 5 pictures at an interval of 20 seconds immediately after the time-lapse operation is triggered, as a verification that the camera system is functioning.
