P3D Re: B in a lenticular camera

[Mark Shields <beamsplitter@xxxxxxxx>]

The UK Nimslos are reported to give you B with batteries reversed.
Don't know because I have Japanese versions.

Both versions (and for sure the Japanese) will give you B if you
short between the center terminal of the hot shoe and the small
terminal adjacent to it. I used the plastic from an audio
cassette box to make a little square to fit the hot shoe. I
drilled holes in it directly above these contacts and inserted
a piece of wire carefully bent. The springs in the hot shoe
press it upwards away from the contacts. Then when I press down
on it like a pushbutton, it makes contact, and I press the
shutter release with the other hand. Releasing either one
closes the shutter. I've done some gorgeous night shots this
way. You'll probably have to do some filing, etc., to make it
fit and work right.

Hope this helps!
