They workish

They are very cheap for a reason they jam up if twisted too tight or if its too cold. But something is better than nothing. Just understand it is a low cost = low quality product.
Cable Release Failed

This is the second one I have purchased in the last month, that has the exact same problem, right of the package. The plunger is in the release position and will not retract, making the entire unit worthless. It seems like the spring has been installed backwards. It was so cheap, I bought another one, hoping the second one would work. DO NOT BUY THIS JUNK!

question
Will this cable work with an Argus c3?
Being that the Argus C3 had a thread shutter release button, this cable release can work with it.

question
Does it work on a Pentax K 1000?
Hi! I would think so. I don't own a K1000 but it works with my Holga, Hasselblad and Yashica cameras. Hope that helps!Corey

question
will this work with an old Canon AE-1 ?
Yes. The threaded tip should screw into the hole in the middle of the shutter release button.

question
I am looking for a threaded cable release that has a 1 plunge on the threaded side. Meaning I have some cable releases that are 3/4 or less when it is used, but I need a longer throw on the business side of the cable release for a custom shutter I am using. Any suggestions???
You MIGHT be able to strip 1/4 off the plastic jacket somewhere in the middle of the cable, and then pull the two remaining segments together again. This should, in effect, make the throw 1/4 longer. TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK.

question
Can I attach it to a Canon 60D camera ? Thanks
No you can't. It's for a mechanical shutter release button. Such as one found on a Canon AE-1
