Does the K3 have a threaded port??
I've not seen them on new cameras for ages.
Modern Pentax cameras have a PC connection for flash but not a mechanical cable release. For shutter release its a choice of jack or IR.
There are a few accessories that use mechanical cable releases (eg. some bellows)
Keith Rock normally has loads of them on his site (www.rockycameras.com) I'd find a dual one that operates both mechanical (lens stop down) & jack (camera) useful but I've never seen one.

Hi Guys, no its not for a K3. Different body, just thought that with the wealth of old gear out there that this might be a good place to ask thats all.
I know what i like, If not always why.
