I would have thought that it would have had the standard taper thread. However I was just looking at the pictures in the instruction manual and the thread does look a bit 'funny' and the hole looks small. Nothing is said about a special release being required in any of the literature. Pentax and Vivitar are 'standard' thread. Just a very silly thought, it could be that the hole is tapped with the very end of the tapered tap. This will give a smaller diameter but still be of the correct thread form. Go and look for an older fabric covered release from the 60/70s and see if the thing fits. My initial thoughts on looking at the pictures in the manual, were that the release must be something like the early Leica type and screw over the button into that fixed collar. Obviously this is not so. |
