Pentax 645Z with Pluto Trigger

photoman1950 · 11-16-2019, 03:57 PM

I recently bought a Pentax 645Z on ebay and love it. I have a Pluto trigger that I use with my Olympus camera and ordered the E3 cord which is supposed to be compatible with the 645. I cannot figure out where to plug it in. It has a pin connector that won't fit in any of the jacks under the card slots. Has anyone used the Pluto trigger and can help me?

Does it plug in on the right side of the body on the hand grip?

I have a Pluto Trigger I use with my K-1. I am pleased with it. Sorry you cannot Seem to use it with the 645z, are you sure you were sent to proper cable? I plug mine into the spot for a wired remote

I saw this thread title and thought that this camera could only take picture of the planet...

There is a cable switch terminal on the right side that is hard to see if you aren't looking for it. That was what I was looking for. It was easy to overlook. Thanks for your replies.
