[MF3D.FORUM:554] Bill Glickman's Mamiyas etc.

[narjan@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Greetings MFers,

Lee Moore already beat me to suggesting only one pair of mirrors as a "base

shrinker".May I also commend a nice diagram of a "beam spreader"( within the

camera ) on page 111 of Ferwerda's "World of 3D". I recently came upon a 6X9 cm

Mamiya at a flea market,which I purchased. It currently has a 6X7 roll film back

with a frame counting winder, which is a nice improvement for someone who has

"missed " the frame number in the " little red window" shooting "slide em overs"

with my trusty Argoflex. The Mamiya's lens is a huge improvement also, as are the

bellows back, and ground glass screen. What I would like to try with it is the two-

aperatures- in- a-single-lens gag shown in the above mentioned drawing, with the

result being a macro unit yielding a pair of 4.5X6 cm images.Have any of you tried

such an arrangement? Best of luck to Bill with his further adventures.

 

Cheers,

John Billingham
