Hey folks well i just got a Viso III again. I sold the last one for some reason but anyway just landed a jewerly gig . Mostly high end rings that i need to shoot and nice thing is it can lead to a top design store . Anyway in the box the gentlemen gave me two extra acessories one is a 16467N and it say 90/4 and the other is a 16474 and i am trying to figure what lenses these are for. 90 F4 Elmar or something else there both screw threads. Oh and a extra piece that is 16468X.

Rodenstock enlarging lenses come with Leica screw mount so you need an LTM to M adapter - however the rear element will probably protrude into the mirror box so you will need a bellows for enlarging lenses (at least the ones that I have).

Yes just trying it now the biggest area with the 135 is almost 4 inches wide which is pretty good really. Just a straight 90 apo is about 8 inches wide. 75 lux is almost the same as the 90 cron. pretty damn close with 75 and 90 width the Viso which for a single ring perfect

I have a book by Theo Kisselback page 118 gives a chart showing various combinations of Focusing mount and extensions.

If you like a can prepare a table for you.

Were it but for copyright I would photocopy.

Guy,

 

I can email you a pdf copy of "The Versatile Possibilities of the Visoflex 3" - a page taken straight from a 1984 dealer catalogue - no copyright issues.....:rolleyes: . It is a simple chart which lists all Visoflex compatible Leica lenses, gives the order number for the focusing adapter and notes minimum / maximum focusing distance and the picture area. This chart is a must for anybody working with a Visoflex and who wishes to take advantage of all its capabilities.

 

Let me know or send me a PM.

 

Best,

 

jan
