Electromagnetic Cable Release

Release Button

The Release button is a two-step position button. Each position provides a different function.

Lightly press the Release button halfway down to collect photometric data.

Press the button fully down to perform a shutter release. 

When the two white dots are aligned, the ring is in the correct position for metering and shutter release.

When taking long time (LT) exposures in Bulb mode, lock the Release button by turning the outer ring 
clockwise and aligning the orange dot with the white dot. The Shutter release locks. To disengage a locked 
Shutter release, turn the ring counterclockwise and return the orange dot to its original position.

NOTE: We do not recommend Pro Back/Pro Back Plus exposures that exceed 1/4 second shutter times.
