Cable release socket repair (Copal)

[Tim Shawcross]

Hi,

I've got a Copal 0 that is missing a single screw from the cable release socket, and a Copal 1 that's socket is cross-threaded.

I want to buy a replacement socket for the Copal 1, and if possible just a screw for the Copal 0 (though if I have to buy the whole socket again, I'll survive.)

Jim at MPEX doesn't stock have parts, never does Badger Graphics. Anyone got a good source to try next?

Thanks

Tim

I recently purchased a PC socket from Carol Miller (http://www.flutotscamerarepair.com/). Or try CRIS (http://criscam.com/old/index.htm)

You can also call Schneider. It is an expensive little part to replace. I would suggest buying a spare. I have one that I have never had to use for several years.
