Hi Rob,
I wouldn't disdain the electric remote release. It induces no
vibrations at all (hard to say the same about some mechanical
releases, especially in the cold weather), it poses no limits of
length, and - in Pentax case - allows unmanned shooting via focus trap
feature. I don't see why F80 was given a mechanical shutter release,
perhaps only for a retro touch on a gizmo body. And btw, F65 has no
remote release provision at all.
Servus, Alin
