Re: Maxwell Optics

My experience with Bill is exactly like Greg's--he is very pleasant but extremely talkative on the phone. I too bought a Rolleiflex screen from him when I lived in Switzerland, and it took an hour-long telephone conversation :-) But his service was impeccable, and the quality of the screen was excellent. I also have one of Bill's medium format loupes, and again, the quality is fantastic.

David,

I am debating buying a new, all matte, screen with sensor lines for the DM-R or would I be better off to send my present screen to Bill Maxwell for his Hi-Lux coating. (He can also add the DM-R's sensor lines.) The cost for both options is within $20, with Bill's being the slightly cheaper.

Has anybody here had their screens coated by Bill? Are the results really noticeable?


I looked into Bill's screens for my Rolleiflex. Based upon what I learned I spoke to Bill on the telephone and ordered a screen from him. It has not arrived here yet although I do believe he mailed it a week or more back. 

Is he really as fast as he says (3 day turnaround?)


See above; shipping to Canada will take some time.

Also be prepared for a bit of a conversation if you talk to Bill by telephone. We discussed optics and a lot of other stuff too. It will be worth it as Bill will be able to determine exactly what your needs are! 

Regards,

Greg
