Subject: [rollei_list] Ikonta Film Spacing was Fuji/Bessa
Richard,
Not sure if I understand your question. I did have the BX
Synchro Compur with the 12 frames. The "new" one I am
expecting to arrive in the next couple of days is a plain
Ikonta (no RF, hence no "Super") and it is a 6 x 4.5 (or as
my grandfather, who was very fond of that model, used to say
in German: "viereinhalb mal sechs" (four and a half times
six).
Never understood the 11-frames model. Why waste film when
you have so few shots between film changes?
Jan
The question is why the B version allows only 11
pictures on the roll. The winding mechanism on the BX must
be different because it allows 12 pictures. I just wondered
what the differences were in the mechanism. I understand
Rolleis pretty well but have never seen much on what's
inside the Super Ikonta.
