What the APUS ASPIRIN Button Does
The APUS ASPIRIN Camera Soft Release Button is a small accessory that screws into your camera's existing threaded shutter release. It extends the surface area of the shutter button, making half-press and full-press actions more comfortable — especially useful during long shoots or when using heavier lenses.
Because it is purely mechanical and requires no batteries or software, installation is straightforward. The button is offered in two sizes (Small 8.2mm and Normal 10.7mm) and is made with an S925 body and a brass thread.
How to Install the APUS ASPIRIN Button
No tools are needed. The entire process takes less than a minute.
- Choose the right size: The APUS ASPIRIN comes in Small (8.2mm diameter) and Normal (10.7mm diameter). Pick the size that feels comfortable under your finger. The threaded base is identical for both; the difference is the button face diameter.
- Remove any existing accessory: If you already have a soft release or shutter cap on your camera, unscrew it by turning counterclockwise.
- Screw the APUS ASPIRIN onto the shutter release: Align the brass thread of the button with the threaded hole in the center of your camera's shutter button. Gently turn the button clockwise until it is snug. Do not overtighten — the brass thread is durable but hand-tight is sufficient.
- Test the action: Press the button lightly to confirm it does not wobble and that the shutter fires normally. The button should sit flush and rotate freely only when you intentionally turn it.
Product Details That Affect Installation
- APUS ASPIRIN Camera Soft Release Button: The APUS ASPIRIN has an S925 body and a brass thread. The brass thread ensures a secure fit on standard threaded shutter releases without stripping the camera's threads. The S925 body gives a solid feel and resists corrosion.
APUS ASPIRIN Camera Soft Release Button - APUS ASPIRIN Camera Soft Release Button: Available sizes: Small (8.2mm) and Normal (10.7mm). Choose the smaller size if you prefer a low-profile button that does not protrude far from the shutter. The Normal size offers a larger surface area for a more pronounced tactile feel.
What the Supplied Information Does Not Cover
The catalog confirms the button's materials, sizes, and that it fits a threaded shutter release. It does not specify which camera models are compatible beyond that general description. Before purchasing, verify that your camera has a threaded shutter release — most mirrorless and DSLR cameras with a standard shutter button thread will work, but some compact cameras may lack the thread.
No installation instructions, torque specifications, or cleaning guidance are provided in the supplied records. Use common sense: avoid overtightening, and if the button feels loose, check that the thread is clean and undamaged.
