Fine Bulb Release

By Kevin McGovern
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2019-02-11

I use this occasionally with my RB67, after locking up the mirror for absolute sharpness. It’s not hard to find a tubing splice, so I cut a center section out so as to give me a total length of 24”, which is more than plenty. Does a terrific job, smooth, and renders shutter button jabbing nearly impossible, giving me negs that approach large format quality. With little things like a decent release, along with great Mamiya glass, direct digital images remain inferior to film.

Will this air (bulb) cable release work on my 4x5 camera with my linholf 150 mm lens? the threads are standard to all right?
Asked by: Maria Ellen
Yes, the threads are standard and the cable will fit. Sometimes the cable release socket sits to close to the lens board and is difficult to get access to. You may also need BH #KACRAL.
