Again, I'm not sure of the F series but other Rolleis will
operate with rather short throw cables. I measured the throw
necessary for an MX Rollei and it is about 7mm. The Gauthier
cables originally supplied with the camera is capable of
about a 15mm throw. I can't check my 2.8E because it has
film in it.
