Remote-trigger shooting capability?

[Vangoghs_Ear]

Hey there-

Question: I want to find a way to remotely trigger an Xpan II, such as with a device like a Pocket Wizard. Does anyone know a way of accomplishing this? Thanks for any advice on this matter!

I don't know what a Pocket Wizard is (anything like a Pocket Monkey?), but Hasselblad did market an electronic remote cable for the Xpan, which you can see on this page:

If this is what you're after, you should be able to find one w/out too much trouble.

Yeah, i bought the remote switch when i got my xpan2 and i was suprised by how much it cost!!
Very expensive, and its only plastic, but it does the trick.

Sometimes cant be bothered winding it in so i just use the 10sec delay on cam.
