I have just bought a cheap camcorder which I find allows me to transfer recordings directly from tape to my DVD recorder, via Firewire. In the process, the recorder can automatically switch the camera on/off. Can anyone tell me if it might be possible to build a simple switch to connect to the camcorder [via Firewire connection] for on/off control in the field? Any advice would be much appreciated as I am starting to build up a store of wildlife video-clips and control from a hide can be useful.
