Cable release adapter for recessed board

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Large format photography : One Thread

I have a 'free arm 360' adapter which doesn't fit for my calumet recessed board. At B&H they sell a 'U hook adapter', does it work better in tight space? any other alternatives?

Can't answer the question posed, but I had a cable which was super low profile - made specifically for recessed lensboards. I had no trouble using it with a Wollensak #3 on my old Cambo. I think I got it at Adorama.

The Pro release Wide Angle Cable Release Adapter is flexible and will fit any board. That would include the double recessed Technikardan board for the 35mm Apo Grandagon. The metal L and U adapters won't fit in as tight a spot.
