First it's an aperture with leafshutter
no lenses

The mechanism to open/close the aperture is inside the frontside (!) if you see pictures from MIFILMCA the wheel setting time is faced to the camera!

MIFILMCA has no black mantle like that one on my table with that special adapter ring.

 

So If anybody could help me I will become happy :)

 

Thanks

Hagen

While the dial-set AGC shutter is the same as in the Leitz MIKAS microscope system, this part is from Zeiss.  It is a shutter / aperture unit for the Carl Zeiss Winkel beam-spliter / viewer unit that serves the same function as MIKAS, but for other cameras.  The outwardly tapered male cone (best visible in the 4th picture) takes camera adapters.  The other side (best visible in the 5th picture) is the obverse female recess that would accept the male cone that is on the Winkel unit.  You can see there are three pins pointing inward, spaced at 120 degrees, with one pin having a thumb knob to tighten the unit to the male taper.

And you need the part that has the beam splitter and finder.  And a camera adapter.

 

This e-bay auction may be interesting if just to look at a more modern, but complete set-up.  E-Bay auction number - 152069431496
