Subject: [rollei_list] Source for a short cable release
Does anyone know where I can buy a cable release about 2-3"
long? I
would like to be able to use a cable release on my
Rolleicord since I
suspect I will get less camera shake than if I trip the
shutter with the
cocking lever. The shortest length I can find in places
like B&H is 6"
which is really too long to leave attached to the camera
when I am
carrying it.
Thanks,
Peter Schauss

Rollei suggests holding the camera on the palm of the
left hand and using the left middle finger to pull the
cocking-release lever. This pushes the camera against the
ball of the thumb and it won't move. I think it will
actually be much harder to keep it steady with a cable
release when hand holding the camera. I also have one of the
little push-button releases made for the Rolliecord V or
maybe Va/Vb. It is less steady than the method using the
shutter lever.
