I've got a case for my Autocord that can be a little tight. Sometimes the shutter accidentally gets pressed. I guess I could make something to prevent that by drilling wood with an appropriate bit diameter, but are there plastic or metal caps available somewhere that could fit around the shutter button?

Doesn’t the Autocord have a shutter release lock?

Thanks, you helped me realize my mistake. I thought the lock prevented exposure when the two dots were apart, but it prevents it when they're together. Oops.
