The easiest answer is to get a Visoflex III with bayonet mount and bellows. Assuming you have more than one lens, you will have all the versatility in regard to reproduction ration you need (I would think). The set-up will work fine unless you need instant mirror up. regards, ron t.

Hi Mehmet,

 

With the 60 and 100apo I assume you are using R series, the easiest way is the R bellows, the earlier for Leicaflex used stop down metering, the later I think is still current is aperture coupled. The extension tube sets for Leicaflex can be found fairly cheaply. If you want to go almost to micro photography then you can use reversed lens on long extension tubes. I have used this method with tubes up to 0.75 meter, but needs very long exposures.

 

Regards, Stuart

I just once tried to go far beyond 1:1, yet.

With a Novoflex-Bellow and the 60-Macro.

I also tried the 100Apo, but the depth of field was too small.

Sorry, don't own a scanner and it's already some time ago.

Today I first would go for a cheap, used DSLR (eos350d, Oly...) for first tests.

regards,T.
