I would like to wire up an external battery pack
for an old D1X I recently got. The main reason is to be able to
clean the sensor - cant clean sensor without EH-4
power supply or external battery.




Hi Vb,
I'm fairly sure that the repair manual for the D1X will have the pin outs you
require.


The folks at Nikon might shudder, but I always found that I could just dial-down
the exposure to "bulb" and then vacuum clean the sensor
(without touching it) merely causing air to flow over it at a high speed and be
then removed from the camera.

I found this technique to be very effective, and seldom required...I also liked
the fact that nothing but air touched the sensor.

This wont fix some cleaning problems, but for the occasional dust mote, it's
worth a thought.

Good luck, Ken Tjomsland
