Gopro 4, 3.5mm External Mic Adapter In Australia For Cheap ??

[Cobba_Dan]

I haven't had much luck finding one of these for less than $34 in Aus.
It seems like my options are to cough up $34 for a $2 cable or wait a month for one to come from chingkong.

$7 on Ebay will get me one for a herpo 3 or 3+. No luck for the 4 though.

Anybody found a cheap one in Australialand ?

or one that will take less than a month to get here

I don't believe there's any difference in the adapters between the 3-4...they both use a mini USB slot

They both use the mini usb, but there must be a difference somewhere, either in the cable or in the camera. There's plenty of people here selling the adapters for hero 3 and 3+ only, I ve asked them If they work with the 4 and they have all said no. I haven't bought one from them to check, but I'm assuming that If their cables did work with the 4, they would know about it and would be advertising it.

I've just been doing some digging and found that there are 5 pin mini usb adapters and 10 pin adapters. Both look the same and fit in the same hole.
My 4 silver has 10 pins inside it's mini usb port. I've looked at pictures of the 3 & 3+ mic adapters and they have 5 pin connectors.
My guess is, the hero 3 & 3+ have 5 pins inside their mini usb ports.

Anyone able to confirm ?
