David, if you do not have a stereo mic yet, check out the RODE NT4 & the o-ring suspension type mount.

David: http://www.webtfg.com/sync7.htm The above link is to The Film Group and their "Blooper Hand-Held Slating Unit". It's been a couple years since I talked to 'TFG' and that was about crystal sync work. I am not up to speed on their current offerings but it's worth a call. Good luck.

Were batteries in the cameras during long term storage? Any damage in the battery compartments from leaking batteries? A compromised ground connection may be causing problems/damage to the CdS photocell.

Harry, do you have operations manuals for your cameras? They were designed to use alkaline batteries. Are both of your cameras loaded with alkaline batteries?

Hello. I have a Canon Magazine Adapter and Mitchell magazines. PM me. Regards, Greg
