Pocket HDMI and Power lead to close to use?

PostMon Nov 04, 2013 6:43 pm

Just got my Pocket camera and there is a problem. How are you supposed to use HDMI out for a monitor and a power lead for an external battery when the two holes are too close together and they wont fit side by side?

Has anyone figured out a workaround for this?

Thanks!

Works fine for me, and not only is my power connector is larger than the supplied BMD power supply, but I also have a Viewfactor cage on the camera at all times.

No issues with using both simultaneously. Your micro HDMI plug or Power pin may be too large.

Yes. I bought four hmdi leads for it I just found the fourth one and it fits. Thank goodness.
