Oh, you can set it all right but the speed but the sloping on the speed
cam is such that you won't necessarily get what you want. That, and I
wouldn't dare set between 1/250 and 1/500.

I'm afraid you are not right Mike, according the Rolleiflex 2.8C instructions manual, page 24, textual,: "... Intermediate speeds may be set at any points between 1 sec. and 1/10th sec and between 1/25th and 1/250th sec. Due to a supplementary spring, added resistance will be felt when setting to 1/500th sec.The shutter should be set to or changed from this highest speed before cocking by of crank action..." .
Anyway I think it's a good advice from a practical point of view to use the marked shutter speeds and the f stops for fine tune the exposure, only if exact DOF is important too much for the photographs the intermediate shutter speeds could be useful.

NO you cannot set inbetween shutter speeds. The
speeds must only be set to the marked positions and the aperture is used to
fine tune the exposure.

your last postingHi Carlos,
I'm not sure that answers my question. I think
answered it, but now I'm confused.1/50 and 1/100 am I
What if I position the speed indicator between
shooting at 1/75? Or does the mechanism choose1/50 or 1/100 based on

Thanks,

modelsThis is a comparison between the 2.8C and older
thenshutter speeds scale and newer model from the 3.5 B(MX-EVS) and 2.8D:
2.8C and older models 2.8D and newer models
1 sec 1 sec
1/2 1/2
1/5 1/4
1/10 1/8
---- 1/15
1/25 1/30
1/50 1/60
1/100 1/125
1/250 1/250
1/500 1/500
In practical use both scales are equivalent and
1/50,you can use a lightmeter assuming that 1/60 is
don't1/125 is 1/100, etc. The 2.8C and older models
camera ishave a shutter speed equivalent to 1/15. The f stops scales are the same.-

The only problem I had with the 2.8C about the

slipped to pass from 1/25 to 1/50 to 1/100, but
theproblem was fixed during the last CLA changing
theworn gear; anyway even with the wheel slipping

Hello all, and thanks in advance for your

When setting shutter speed or aperture stop on

I right to assume that the settings are

There are many wiser heads to comment on this,between the marked positions?
Thanks,
however my 2c is that its probably fine for the
aperture, but won't work for the shutter speed.
