[Leica] WTB: Nikon AR-1 soft release

[benedenia at gmail.com (Marty Deveney)]

Geoff, the AR-1 is the soft release for the Nikon F, F2 and RF cameras
with a threaded shroud - the threads are on the inside of a tube that
sits over the release housing.  Tom's soft releases don't work on
these cameras.
