As a follow up to this, after my broken cable release last year I ordered a couple of these from RW to try them out:timparkin wrote:I've ended up with an expensive compromise - I use short shutter cable extenders (see the Gepe extenders here - https://www.badgergraphic.com/store/car ... list&c=191). These don't seem to get damaged as easily but make it a *lot* easier to mount a shutter cable (I only keep a couple in my bag now).

Having received them today they look absolutely identical to the ones on the badger link. They seem OK, easy to screw a release into the female end. With only 8mm of throw they won't work with press-type shutters, so be warned.
