Front deraillure compatibilty

E Ball said:

I have a older Shimano front deraillure which appears to be 6 or 7
speed (it has a 600 lable on it). Would this work with campy 8 speed
shifters? or would the gate be too wide for accurate shifting?

Will shift as well with Ergo8 as it did with DT shifters.
Unless it is worn out, no problem.

No, but with Campy 10 shifters, you'll shift the Shimano 8 cassette
perfectly.

Yeah, but I found it interesting. What kind of assumptions has he made
about the rear derailleur here?

I regret consusing things. If one uses Campy 10 shifters and a
Shimano rear derailleur, any thing except 7402, you will shift Shimano
8sp cassettes.

A small point, but, actually, anything except a Dura-Ace 7400/01/02.
