Using my Hassy H3D back on my Alpa SWA the other day, I came across a problem. When swapping the lens to the rear of the camera, and the digi back to the front (so the back shifts rather than than the lens), the lens-to-back sync cable and the back-to-Pocket Wizard cable barely fit between the digi back and the SWA's wood handles. (The cables protrude from the side of the back, rather than from the rear.) It's impossible to shift over 10mm due to the cables being in the way.
Does anyone know of any cables that have a slimmer profile than the standard Pocket Wizard ones? I'm referring specifically to the elbow segment, where it angles 90 degrees after emerging from the H3D back.
If not, is it possible to just strip the exterior from the cable and tape it up with electrical tape?
thanks
