Thank you for the Nikon items that arrived yesterday, all in far better condition than your gradings suggested. I am delighted with the equipment and the prompt delivery.

Simon Stafford, Technical Editor, Nikon Owner Magazine

Thank you for the absolutely excellent service. I have never dealt with you before so there was obviously some apprehension when buying online but I have been extremely impressed with the experience. I know I will be back!!!

Simon Morris, Llanelli, Dyfed

Abrahamsson softrelease
Image

Peter Walnes is the UK stockist for Tom Abrahamsson's Softrelease. It's a convex (dome-shaped) button that screws into the shutter release, using the same thread as the cable release.

It fits most cameras that have this thread including all Leica M and R, Leicaflex SL, Nikon FM, FE2, F3T, Nikkormats, Voigtlander Bessa L and T, new Zeiss Ikon, Kodak Retina Reflex, Retina IIIc and IIIC, Fuji 645 (rangefinder), Pentax (not LX) Rollei 35, Canonet G-III, QL17 and Konica Auto S3.

Users report that it doesn't work on any of these: Hasselblad, Nikon F, F2, FM2, FM2N, Nikon F3 (it could turn the meter on permanently!) Pentax LX, Yashica, Konica Autoreflex TC and Voigtlander Bessa R

It costs £17 including VAT in a choice of chrome, matte black, red, green, blue (for your Zeiss Ikon!) and purple.

We also stock the Mini Softrelease for your Bessa, Leica M and most mechanical cameras, now available in the same choice of colours. The price is £17 including VAT.
