Elias:
The Rollei Pistol Grip with the Rolleifix -as the item you mentioned-
works for any Rollei TLR provided with the tripod plate with the groove for the
Rolleifix, in other words for models manufactured from about 1952 including the
2.8C.
I have used several times the combo 2.8C, 3.5F or 'cord IV, Rollei pistol grip
with and without the flash bracket and flash unit and the 2.8C with the
Rolleimeter, they work excellent. If you want to advance the film after the
first shot quickly, the best way to do it (IMO) is to cross your left arm in
front of the camera to move the crank (that you can maintain unfolded)with the
left hand; the Rollei grip has an adjustable cable shutter release.
You also could disassemble the Rolleigrip to use the Rolleifix separately, it
does not a good practice IMO, except if you don't think to use the Rolleigrip;
it's better to have dedicated Rolleifixes for your tripods.-
Carlos
