This is becoming a regular request, I'll make it quick for those of
who may be getting bored.
I'm still looking for a cable release with a parallel threaded end to
fit and Alphax or Betax shutter. Preferably at least 12" and not too
badly worn. I've tried using the tapered thread releases and they
either do not work or last only a short time before becoming useless.
In addition the engineer in me does not like using a tapered thread
in a parallel threaded hole.
So, the next time you're at a long established store or a photo meet
- please think of me. I am happy to pay for the cable/s and shipping
etc.
I had been using a deGroff air release on 8x10 - a bulky field
solution but it works. It will not fit on the 5x7 camera that I use
regularly.
Cheers,
Clive
