jaapv Posted May 6, 2010 Author Share #6 Posted May 6, 2010 It is what I'm prepared to pay. I don't like feeding sellers bids of an Euro at at time. Take it or leave it is my motto Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share #8 Posted May 7, 2010 That is bad They have the first type 4.5/200, which is the only 200 mm lens that can be used officially directly on a Leica rangefinder. There were adapters for both LTM and M mount - where is my little book of numbers? If I only can find an adaspter ring.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigi bertolotti Posted May 7, 2010 Share #9 Posted May 7, 2010 TZOON : that's the ring for 200 directly on LTM... and there is also the proper finder SFTOO... but no rangefinder coupling... ... not so easy to use until we'll have the EVIL... Btw, a 200 4,5 with good glass, postwar-coated, is an excellent tele : I have both it and the f4 version, and like better the 4,5, which is also really compact (better also than the ill-fated Elmarit V 180 2,8); of course, in the usual Viso config...

jaapv Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share #10 Posted May 7, 2010 Sorry, Luigi. TZOON is for Leica 250. TZFOO is for LTM mount and 14024 for Leica M, according to Tompkins and Ruttiger (Wittig Verlag, 1984) It is moot anyway, because I suppose these rings, which seem to have had a shoe for the viewfinder btw, are quite impossible to find.

luigi bertolotti Posted May 8, 2010 Share #11 Posted May 8, 2010 RIght : TZOON was indeed inroduced with the 250... but of course it can be used on any screw mount body (after all, is basically a tube as long as the Viso 1 - PLOOT). TZFOO is almost identical : I gave a look at Lager book on lenses , same simple shape, same socket for finder, a slightly different tripod mount.

Steve B. Posted May 8, 2010 Share #12 Posted May 8, 2010 TZFOO with a SFTOO - - (I love these words ) Jaap, If you just can't live without a TZFOO for your Telyt, don't dispair; they are out there! Uncommon but not impossible! I came upon this stuff below after keeping watch over the various vendor and auction websites. Took about a year for all of it, if I recall. My 1953 Leica price list shows the TZOON for the Telyt 200. I do not have a 1954 price list, which was the year the M3 was introduced, but my 1955 copy shows the TZOON is gone, replaced by the TZFOO for the LTM and the TXBOO (14024) for the M series. I can only think that perhaps this was done to increase the height of the accessory shoe on the "new" TXBOO to allow the SFTOO finder to clear the increased height of the M3 top plate, and the same adaptor body was then used for the TZFOO as well, and which then would also work out well for the IIIg a few years later.
