    That would actually be a very workable solution, if only there were some
way of attaching a cable release to the E-500 or other DSLRs.  For what you
are suggesting, the dual cable release used on the bellows would do the job.
And I would dearly love to be able to use a cable or even better bulb
release on it just as I did with the OM-1.
