Hi Peter ... Well, I got a pouch with mine, but, after looking at it carefully, have come to conclude that it's not a standard item, as it's slightly larger than the box for the cord. I suspect the seller was just generous and gave me the pouch she'd been using. It's a nice touch though --

That's a pretty good price. I paid about that for a used one, although it was like new with the box and the carrying pouch. Does the cord come with the leatherette pouch, or is that an optional item? -- Shel Belinkoff mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "Gary L. Murphy" wrote: > > On Sat, 21 Apr 2001 1

Tom, Nope, it's just well hidden on the ME II . . . there's actually a round plastic cap on top of the winder around the locking ring. Bill Tom Rittenhouse wrote: > > Doesn't the winder have to be modified to use it? There is > no remote jack on my ME II winder. Also, I recall that my MX >

Hi Tom ... Look at the top of the hand grip, where the shutter release button is. You'll notice that there's a dial that says S, OFF, and C. In the center of that dial is a cap - it's hard to recognize it if you don't know it's there. Just pry it up with your finger or something. See, there i

Hi Tom ... No modification required to use the remote cord on the winder MEII or Winder LX - unless removing the plastic cap where the cord attaches is considered a modification. Tom Rittenhouse wrote: > > Doesn't the winder have to be modified to use it? There is > no remote jack on my ME II w

Doesn't the winder have to be modified to use it? There is no remote jack on my ME II winder. Also, I recall that my MX winders had to be sent into Pentax to have a remote jack installed. --Tom Donald Ross wrote: > > Is there such a beast, and if so, are they still readily available? > > Don >
