At a glance: The ProMaster 20 inch Manual Cable Release is a mechanical cable release with a lock, for cameras with a threaded shutter-button socket.
About this accessory
The ProMaster Manual Cable Release is a 20 inch (about 51 cm) mechanical cable release for cameras with a threaded socket in the shutter button. A heavy-duty cable helps reduce camera shake when you take the shot, and a lock holds the shutter open for time exposures.
Because it is purely mechanical, it needs no battery and does not depend on electronics. Choose it for older film cameras and for long exposures at night or on tripod work. It will not work with modern cameras that lack a threaded shutter-button socket, so check your camera before you buy.

Best for
Best for film shooters with older cameras, and for night, landscape and long-exposure work on a tripod where touching the shutter button would cause blur. Also useful for photographers who like traditional, battery-free kit.
Frequently asked questions
Will this cable release fit my camera?
It fits cameras with a threaded socket in the shutter button, which is common on older film cameras. If you are unsure, bring the camera into our Harrogate shop and we will check.
What does the lock do?
It holds the shutter open for time exposures (bulb mode), so you do not need to keep pressure on the plunger.
Does it need a battery?
No. It is a mechanical release and works through the cable alone.
How long is the cable?
20 inches, about 51 cm.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
