I'm currently awaitng receipt of a Bessa R2S body from Mr. Gandy, and have been wondering about the trigger winder accessory that he also has available.
Has anyone ever taken one of these apart to determine if it could be modified to be electrically driven?
I like the idea of a motor-driven camera, but if it must be taken away from the eye to advance the film, for the kind of shooting I do, and my reasons for using motor drives (which are just to keep the film advanced and the shutter cocked and ready at all times) it probably defeats the purpose.
Probably more trouble than it's worth, but these sorts of projects always intrigue me, so I just thought I'd ask.
Please and thank you.
