Hello, I have a Sinar DB shutter, which I control with a special cable release. The inner cable of this release seems to be just a little too long to release the shutter. How can I adjust the cable release so that it functions properly? Thanks in advance! Arnoud!

I'm going to alert @B.S.Kumar on this as he has seen a lot of Sinar stuff and might be able to assist.

I got it, the release was a little bent, so it got stuck in the outercable, repaired it, now it's like 'new'

I"ve had a few bent ones myself, if bad enough, I move them to the Plaubel Makiflexes I have, they trip those too with an adapter, and are not so finicky. Cable Lube for bicycles might help a bit with smoothness.
