Jack,

Is there any specific information on the threads (inner and outer) available on the front of the Mallincam? I ask because with that gold ring in place the Mallincam is different than a number of other similar looking video cameras. With products around like Scopestuff's C adapter it would be nice to be able to quickly verify that they had a chance of working or not. Plus with the thread information we would be better prepared to have a conversation with someone offering any form of adapter/connector.

The following exchange does tend to grow tiresome ...
"Does your ABC adapter work with the Mallincam?
"I don't know, but it does work with an XYZ camera and they look the same. I guess you'll just have to try it and see."
