Can you remove the Omega Mount From a Koni Omega Lens, and engineer a linkage for the shutter

Can you remove the Omega Mount From a Koni Omega Lens, and engineer a linkage for the shutter release instead, or do I have to figure out a way to mount the stock mounting as well? I'm going to build a sliding box camera dedicated to my K-O 58mm lens, with a cable release connection in the box.

This answer is from a man who owns one.

 

No. You have to replace the shutter. The 58/5.6's cells will fit a #0 Press shutter, the 60/5.6's won't and must have a cock-and-shoot #0.

 

I hope you didn't pay too much for your poisoned gift.

 

Why can't you use it, once reshuttered, on your 2x3 Pressman?
