RUGers,

On the Medium Format Forum, some chap stated that his 2.8D had BELLOWS
in
it. Internally of course. Is this true? My 2.8E2 does not.

Eric, I believe that you have a 2.8D.

Can someone confirm this?

Jerry

My 2.8E definitely has a short bellows. Rack focus out to maximum and shine a flashlight at the back of the taking lens, you should see a cloth surround there. Presumably, this forms a more reliable light trap than the plain telescoping tubes on earlier Rolleis. Perhaps it was used on only a few models.
