I don't suppose there is some sort of adjustment on it to change the throw ratio between the two cables? I don't think so, funny enough the part that screws into the camera release is somewhat adjustable, but that doesn't change the length of the center-part that comes out. It is only 6mm when the release is fully pressed. The second one, that goes into the bellows to close the aperture, comes out before the camera side, and extends a full 12mm ... My other cable release extend an amazing 22mm wich trips the LX shutter easily. Maybe I'll open the double-release hand-grip to see if I can change it a little there. I would love to use it on the LX since that is the body best suited to Bellows work because of MLU and superior long exposure capabilities. I use two seperate cable releases now, wich works but is a bit clumsy! Regards, JvW - Jan van Wijk; www.fsys.demon.nl - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Vs: LX cable release (Was: Soft Release for LX)
Have you tried to adjust it - mine works well. All the best!

I noticed a while ago that the double cable-release that came with my Pentax Pentax Auto-bellows does NOT work correctly with the LX. The shutter is not activated at all ... It works perfectly on my MX, and another 3rd party cable release works fine on the LX. Any experiences?

Re: LX cable release (Was: Soft Release for LX)
The remote electric shutter release that can be used with the LX Winder is great. When shooting birds in my yard, I can stand fifteen feet behind the camera and just click them off. And the shutter seems smoother when tripped by the winder than it does when tripped with a standard cable on the shutter release button. Paul - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
