Krauklis Posted July 13, 2011 Share #21 Â Posted July 13, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) If it fits for the II, it's an ORAKO, which is smaller than the OKARO for later bodies (beginning with the IIIc). Â Exactly! Â ORAKO (diameter 10mm) for I, II, III, IIIa, Saar). Â OKARO (diameter 11mm) for IIIb, IIIc, IIc, Ic, IIId, IIIf, IIf, If, IIIg, Ig, IIg.

Advertisement Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 Hi Krauklis, Take a look here OKARO filter for a IIIf. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
huubl Posted July 13, 2011 Share #22  Posted July 13, 2011 Exactly! ORAKO (diameter 10mm) for I, II, III, IIIa, Saar).  OKARO (diameter 11mm) for IIIb, IIIc, IIc, Ic, IIId, IIIf, IIf, If, IIIg, Ig, IIg.  -krauklis  You mentioned the IIIg and siblings. I guess you mean the IIIg only. AFAIK the IIg never went into production and the Ig doesn't have a rangefinder. BTW, how would the OKARO fit onto the flat rangefinder window of the IIIg?

Guest Posted July 13, 2011 Share #23 Â Posted July 13, 2011 Which filter might fit for a IIIa sync? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krauklis Posted July 13, 2011 Share #24 Â Posted July 13, 2011 You mentioned the IIIg and siblings. I guess you mean the IIIg only. AFAIK the IIg never went into production and the Ig doesn't have a rangefinder. BTW, how would the OKARO fit onto the flat rangefinder window of the IIIg? Â Addition/correction of #21: Â All the models I (one), those without a built-in rangefinder, can take the FOKOS rangefinder and that can take ORAKO. (Not really convenient... something to play with). Â IIg - Dennis Laney in the Leica Collector's Guide says that 12-15 IIg were made. (Dennis Laney, Leica Collector's Guide, 2nd Edition, p.89). Â IIIg - I do not own a IIIg, but I remember having spoken to a IIIg owner who told me about his IIIg taking OKARO. (Last year I tried to find ORAKO for my III and collected a lot of information about OKARO and ORAKO, eventually I bought both, you never know).

Â -krauklis You cannot fix an OKARO on a IIIg because the edge of the viewfinder is too thin to assure a safe clamping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
