Gadget required for cable release
 

Once upon a time the cameras I bought had a thread on the shutter release button. Now all my cameras have a smooth chrome button and I want to use my cable release and air tube when the camera is on the tripod and a timer isn't practical. Has anyone seen anything that would do the job? It ,or they , would need to fit a Lumix compact TZ3 and/or a Lumix TZ28 bridge camera. Thanks,
Dagwood

The TZ3 apparently has no remote facility, while I can find no trace of a 'TZ28'..... sure that's the number?

Scroll down to last item. They look a little cumbersome but do the job.

AAAh! Well done Geoff - you spotted my deliberate mistake (not!) I should of course have written FZ28. The type of attachment shown in Harry's reply is the type of thing I was looking for. I didn't explain it too well in my OP. Thanks Harry! I also returned to an earlier reply re digiscoping where Chris-P suggested [B]SRB Griturn[/B] and found they have the type of attachment needed also, though possibly more engineered. Thanks to you all.

Didn't know they were still around after leaving the Great Western Arcade in Birmingham city centre. :eek:
