Rubbish. This product fails at its job. Unfortunately, the black jacket around the cable is so soft that the cable deforms the jacket when pushing the release knob. So much so that the camera's shutter button doesn't fire!

works great, smooth, real flexy so its easy to pack, better than expected as it can be set to lock itself for long bulb shots vs needing to hold it or lock it myself. used it on my Fuji S pro 2 to do a long exposure and my Mamiya 645 1000s cameras.

This shutter release has a simple bulb release function that works well and is very easy to use once you get the hang out it. The bulb-lock function on this shutter release cable is not prone to the bending that other cables, using a side-mounted screw mechanism that sticks out 90 degrees from the cable, suffer from. I have multiple shutter release cables that have the bulb-lock screw bent and useless. This cable solves that problem.

Sadly, I lose these types of accessories, so I grabbed these for back up. The build is solid and works well with our older Olympus, Pentax, and Nikon bodies.

Equipment:Mamiya/Sekor 500DTLKodak Tourist II KodetI wanted something with a bit more reach than the standard 12"/25cm release common to medium/large format but less than my 25'/7.62m air bulb. The air bulb works flawlessly with both cameras but this 3'/1m cable release does not work consistently. As at least one other reviewer noted if there is any significant bend in the sleeve the internal cable is allowed to deflect to the extent it will not activate the shutter on either camera. The flex is problem is so pronounced that the pin will not exit the mouth of the housing if the release is bundled to a 4"/10cm loop for storage (about the max to fit in the bag it's packaged in). This means you have to have sufficient tension and angle on the camera that you risk moving it during your shot, especially in bulb mode.Really it's not useable. I guess I'll keep it since it's too cheap to bother returning but I'm certainly not happy with it. @fotasy the issue is likely due to the internal cable type used, not the sheath. Most likely the braided cable inside is too loose a wrap to maintain adequate stiffness when arced.

So first off this isn’t what I would call the greatest quality. Threads on the end that attaches to the camera are kinda trash. And it seems cheaply made. However, for the price it does work just fine and hasn’t given me any issues. So if this takes a crap on me it’s not a big deal because of how cheap it is I’ll just buy another.I have a canon AE-1 program that I use it with. It does take a very firm press to get it to fire but it works fine.

There seems to be a lot of people who think this cable doesn't work and a few others who don't really know how to take advantage of its versatility.I worked in a camera store back in the '70's, (when such a thing existed in nearly every city and town), and I am familiar with this item as it remains unchanged all these decades later.It is all about the knurled ring under the plunger. When you push the knurled ring down and turn it clockwise to lock it down, the cable release is free to trigger an exposure and the plunger will return to its original position and pressure will come off the inner exposure button on your camera. When the knurled ring is in its upper position, or you turn it counter-clockwise to unlock so it is in its upper position, the cable release then becomes a LOCKING cable release. When you press the plunger down, it will lock in that position until you press down on the knurled ring to release it from its locked position.This is a mystery to digital camera owners.In film cameras, which have adjustable shutter speeds, there is sometimes a speed marked B for Bulb Exposure, With this setting, the shutter simply stays open as long as the shutter button remains depressed. It is preferable to use a cable release to prevent camera vibration during the longer exposure. This allows you to take pictures like the one I attached, which shows me looking south on I-95 and a jet is crossing over the highway from right to left. The exposure was 15 seconds, so the headlights and taillights are ribbons of light and the blinking lights of the landing jet are short beams crossing in front of me.In short, this is a great cable release and it works perfect when you know how to use it. Happy shooting!
