It's apples and oranges, unfortunately. You would need a USB to serial adapter. Joe, the camera has a serial input and your GPS is USB. It’s apples and oranges, unfortunately.

I love it! Found a short clip- the video and stills were captured using it http://vimeo.com/9337388 I recently bought the new Nikon D3s. I love it!

I use a Mac Laptop & PC desktop to interface with both components (ideally I’d prefer cross-platform-functionality). The GPS has a mini USB & the D200 has a 10-pin connector. Are the Nikon MC-35 GPS Adapter Cable and Garmin GPS 18 LVC (OEM Series) necessary for my application? Are their functions (supply regulated voltage, signal conversion, etc.) critical or do they just enable connectivity? I don’t have schematics or technical information. I realize in some situations the components are critical, but since there seems to be multiple approaches, I was wondering if it is possible to splice the two connectors to enable data transfer.

It needs to be powered by the camera, but only needs to be in receive mode. I don't see why this needs to be much larger than a US quarter. With this we can then wirelessly interface with any number of COTS Bluethooth GPS units. What have I missed?

I read this before making mine at http://my-equipments.blogspot.com. Since i used a GPS receiver with TTL output, I did not need the costly MC-35 GPS adaptor. You can directly connect the Tx of such a receiver to Pin 1 of the Nikon 10 pin connector. Great Job. I read this before making mine at http://my-equipments.blogspot.com.
