With the winder 2, instead of a mechanical cable release, you use an electrical
release.  The socket next to the shutter button on the handle  takes a small
plug, available at Radio Shack or other electronics parts place.  Just connect
the two wires from the plug to a switch and you have an electrical remote
release.
