- Why not just replace the lost cover with the release that fits into
- into that socket? (MR-3A -- I think; don't have the camera handy
- at the moment.) It lets you shoot verticals more comfortably and/
- or use a mechanical cable release, if you feel so inclined.
-
- Of course, it also gives you something else -- considerably more
- expensive -- to lose the next time around. 8-(
