Hi Bao,
I'm the owner of that site, so I've just re-instated
http://members.iinet.net.au/~celsim/mz6/cablerelease.htm
Michel's site is far more complete (as you have seen) but you may find the
graphic useful. Note that (for me) a 2.5mm jack doesn't fit. You need the
really small 2mm jack (found as a headphone accessory for many mobile
phones). 
Also, Michel's right, the Cannon plug fits as well, but I wanted to make my
own so I had the flexibility to used whatever switches and cable lengths I
wanted (I've tested mine on a cable up to 15m).
Let us know how it goes.
Merry Christmas,
Simon

I have added schema for cable release for MZ-6 on my French web:

page:

No MZ-6 available so not tested !
You can use a Canon cable for the MZ-6

Subject: MZ-6 (ZX-L) cable release howto?


Hello!

I was looking for some instructions how to make my own cable release for 
ZX-L, searched the web, but it didn't turn up anything, except a link in 
pdml faq: http://members.iinet.au/~celsim/mz6/cablerelease.htm, which 
does not work.

Can anyone point me to a site or give some instructions how to make the 
cable release? I guess that the only thing i need is what type of 
connector it has and what each pin does, as the 3-wire concept is 
probably the same.

Thanks!
