Revere Flash Adapter Addendum



Hi Folks,
I have a little more info to add to my lengthy posting in Digest
#1120.  With the help of a very friendly salesman in a "Production
Tool" company this morning, we determined that the thread size of 
the Hasselblad PC terminal (socket) was 6 x 0.5mm.

The cost of the 6 x 0.5mm made in Yugoslivia tap was only just over
$3 including tax.  This evening I drilled an tapped a hole in a piece 
of aluminum and determined that the Hasselblad terminal fit nicely.

This is far superior to trying to press fit the terminal to a drilled
and reamed hole.

Altho I had previously made such an adapter for my Realist also,
the method described by others of removing the hot shoe screws 
and raising the shoe looks like a winner for that camera.

Regards......Jim MOtley
