jimofnyc Posted March 20, 2008 Share #1 Â Posted March 20, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have had my father's IIIG since the late sixties. When I worked in a camera shop after school I had the opportunity to add a Leicavit winder. Now I want to know if it is a SYOOM or a SCNOO or whatever. How does one tell?

luigi bertolotti Posted March 20, 2008 Share #2 Â Posted March 20, 2008 SYOOM is the Leicavit for IIIG; the SCNOO was a similar device (but not yet nicknamed "Leicavit") for older-than-IIIC bodies (they were a bit shorter); SCNOO was simpler/rougher than SYOOM, with a finger-operated ring that wasn't retractable in the bottom, while the winding arm of the SYOOM is completely invisible when retracted. Â You can find surely pics of them on the Net and in the books. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc_braconi Posted March 20, 2008 Share #3 Â Posted March 20, 2008 the SCNOO was a similar device (but not yet nicknamed "Leicavit") for older-than-IIIC bodies (they were a bit shorter); . Â Luigi, just to be precise, SCNOO were made for IIIc bodies also without trying or measure them , they have a big hole to anchor on the body plot instead of little one for the predecessors.
