[Leica] German interview with Che Guevara photographer

[rgacpa at yahoo.com (Bob Adler)]

I looked at this before (75 Rodagon). Had questioned whether an enlarging 
lens would be optimal.
I'll try it out with the M8 and let you know/see....
Thanks,
Bob

My 135mm f4.5 Hektor head works on it till infinity.
And that's a long ways away.

A 75mm f4 Apo Rodagon works with it optimized for 1:1
Or 0.7x-1.3x to be exact

And other of my Nikkor enlarging lenses have worked.

An M8 would be a boom for the use of this stuff I've long said.
