i asked around the camera techs for you and they seem to think that a 7 pin
DIN is a very non standard thing. They say that they have seen 9 pin DIN's
for camera's and a couple of older cannons with 5 pin DIN's but never 7 pin
DIN's.

I would suggest calling the manufacturer if the info isn't on their
website......you might be lucky enough to find the info in a manual for the
camera?
