Hello! I purchased an Ilex 8 1/2 inch f6.3 lens in a No. 3 Acme Synchro shutter for my first 4x5 lens. A standard cable release does not fit it - it does not enter into the shutter far enough to engage the threads.

Are there different size cable releases that are available for these lens/shutters? Is there a way to modify standard cable releases to fit them? Thank you and best regards.

Mike
