Re: [Rollei] Adapter/hood for Rollei (was: 'Must Haves' for any TLR user?)

["Bob McClelland" <bob >]

Well what I did was to look online, and then phoned to ask them about a Bay
II to 49mm screw (common size, of course). I was told that 49 was a
'special' and that custom orders would be six months!!!!!!  However, I could
have an express service for a mere £100!!!!!!!!!


Anyway, the good news is that the Bay II to 46mm is stocked and I got mine
the next day (postage £2.50).  Very nice too!

Got to http://www.srbfilm.co.uk/index1.html, select 'adaptors' then, p6,
'stepping rings' and all should be well.  If you still have trouble, e-mail
me off list and I'll attach the relevant list to my reply.

Hope this helps,

regards,

Bob,

Did you call them, or did you order on-line? I need a hood and an adapter
for my 3.5, but I could not find any reference to Rollei-related products on
their site. Does it have to be custom-ordered?

Thanks in advance,
Fyodor.
