Hey Folks, So, when I'm in the field with my ZX-5n taking botanical photos, my camera is on a tripod, my left hand may be holding a shade cloth or diffusion screen, my right hand may be holding my flash connected to the camera by a cord. I operate the shutter using the shutter release cable (I think this is the cable switch F) in my mouth, as I have found a simple tongue manuever is effective at depressing the switch.
:) So anyway, now that I have an *ist-DS, I'm wondering if either of the two shutter control options--the "Remote control F" or the "Cable Switch CS-205" can easily be operated using one's lingual appendage? And does this rate as a strange question? By the way, B&H is once again stocking the *ist-DS on its catalogue, $629.95. I wonder why it had stopped for a while? Barry A.
