golcarlily Posted December 12, 2008 Share #1 Posted December 12, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi I have over a hundred of flashcubes which I bought to use with my minox flashcube adaptor . Is there any adaptor available to use them with my Leica IIIf ? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

giordano Posted December 12, 2008 Share #2 Posted December 12, 2008 I've never heard of a Leica-branded flashcube unit. As for other brands, there are a couple of units on EBay (search for "flashcube" and also for "flash cube"). It would also be worth trying some dealers who specialise in old, non-famous cameras and equipment. I don't know where you are; in my part of the world I'd start with Hailsham Camera Centre and Arundel Photographica (by telephone: flashcube units are likely to be in bottom drawers, not on websites!). Many flashcube guns didn't have a PC cord, only a hot foot, but there's no difficulty finding a hot shoe adapter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
golcarlily Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted January 4, 2009 Solution found!!! Agfa 'isi-C' flashcube adaptor. A dinky little hot shoe mounted cube with PC cable attached.Takes a small 6v battery (compatible silver oxide type available from 'The small battery company' ) and the flashcube plugs into the top. Connects direct to my IIIf flash socket via cable. I paid £3 for mine form J.S. marriott here in the UK and have seen them on e-bay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
