Has anyone come across an option for a remote shutter release for the X1DII?
I'm working in often wet weather and having side door open for the shutter release cable worries me a bit re waterproofing. (Apart from that the camera has performed flawlessly in wet conditions).
I know I can use phocus on my phone but then live view stops on camera and moves to phone screen and that is far to much of a disconnect for me (though it's great with tethered shooting set up of course).
Thanks.

Depending on the situation, you may be able to use the timer instead of a remote release.

As you note Hasselblad sell a plug in shutter release "cable/button" - but you can also trigger using phocus (2) on your smart device.
