wing-mounted Pentax Optio

Could anyone give me some inputs re experience using the Pentax Optio digital camera for wing-mounted photos on a HG, please? Is it possible to disable the automatic power shutoff, and if so how?

Title: Replacing shutter switch with jack?
Weblog: Camera Hacker
Excerpt: Another problem has arisen. Most of the cameras -- 6 megapixels or larger -- are too compact , once the case is removed, to attach jack wires (forget an internal jack).
