I have had a look around and everywhere I have looked seems to indicate that there is no way to fix a remote release to this unless you could cobble something together yourself.

Some sort of clamp with a fixing for an old mechanical cable release might work as you could press the release button

Sorry

Likewise Stew, I've had a look and I think it only has three ports.
• DC in
• AV out
• USB

so no electronic shutter release.

Cheers Mark.
