Release Cord
A 12-inch (30cm) cord with a variety of tunc-
tions, this accessory serves many of the
same purposes as a mechanical cable reo
lease. Yet, with its "on-off" switching me-
chanism, it is much more versatile than any
conventional cable release ever invented.
The release cord is especially valuable for
single frame exposure, for animation and
titling. It prevents camera movement, and
allows you great freedom of movement while
you manipulate titling cards or subjects.
Remote Control Cord
This
16Yz.
foot (5·meter) cord is simply a
release cord of extended length. It is instal-
led the same way as the shorter release cord,
and is also hand-operated. For remote con-
trol filming from great distances, it is possi-
ble to connect up to
three
cords and hand-
operate the camera from a distance of 50
feet (15 meters). The remote control cord
may also be used to operate more than one
camera at a time, or to allow the photogra-
pher to get in his own picture.
Tape Recorder·Control Cord
The electromagnetic shutter release permits
synchronized sound recording when any of
the cameras and most popular cassette tape
recorders are connected. The tape recorder-
control actuates both the camera shutter
and the recorder.
Wireless Control Unit
Wireless control of the D series cameras is
possible from distances from 100 to 260
feet (30 to 80 meters) outdoors when the
camera is connected to this unit, which con-
sists of a transmitter and receiver. The wire-
less unit assures the same positive
electromagnetic shutter release accuracy as
all other accessories. For covert filming of
wild birds and other normally inaccessible
subjects, the wireless control unit is in-
dispensable. It is also invaluable for filming
a subject with two or more cameras sirnul-
taneously from different angles, or similar
shutter actuation from a distance.
