my sl66 from 1960s is so old that it has Zeiss lenses . And I have so man y
lenses that I was forced to buy an extra body. Also have microscope
lens-turret adapter and "luminar" rollei mount. I have also, leica-screw
mount adapter. I once owned the external motor and sold that to Ken Hansen
about thirty years ago.I still have the spring-loaded filter holder.. Love
it. Now I have 3003 stuff. Too bad they're out of business.
