  1. <p>Hello again, thanks a lot to all of you for your help. So finally, if I am clear, the best thing to do would be to sell my Visoflex and buy another one with the normal focussing screen, or maybe buy a Visoflex II and adapt the screen to my Visoflex. And please confirm I can use any M lens on the Visoflex, and if I see the image in focus on the screen I will get it properly focussed on the sensor...?<br> Thanks a lot, cheers.</p>
  2. <p>Thank you Bill, thanks John. I have read a lot about users that could and used their Visoflex with conventional M lenses without any problem, I thought it was possible. I actually have a 90 Elmarit that you can unscrew and screw onto the plate on the bellows, attached to the Visoflex, I also have tried that but again the same focus issue, so I really don't know what to do at this point. The first step seem to have a "frosted" screen to focus onto, but that seems impossible to find... Then try other lenses? Very confusing...</p>
  3. <p>Thank you very much, I will contact CRR first, since it seems to be the closest, or Will van Manen.</p>
  4. <p>Hello Stephen, thanks a lot for your thoughts, I could be that you are absolutely right... My Visoflex did not have a frosted ground glass, it only had this one... I wish I could get one and test it, I am sure it is almost impossible to find one, and it has to be removable also... But I get your point. And thanks for the link, I will check it and see if I get lucky.<br> Best wishes.</p>
  5. <p>Hi Stephen, thanks a lot for your input. Let me try to answer your questions. The Visoflex is mounting directly onto the camera body, no extension rings or anything. You are right, my Visoflex has an interchangeable focusing screen, I did not know there was another type of Viso... I have checked a lot of pictures, and it is obvious in your picture, that my focussing screen is different, mine is totally transparent. However, since the image forms perfectly well on the prism, in sharp focus, it seems the problem should be on the mounting as you mention, but the Viso mounts well and I don't see any difference with other Visos, nor can I find the screws you mention. Here are some more pictures of my item.</p>
  6. <p>I have been looking inside of it, all over. It seems perfectly clean, in great condition, the mirror stops in its place... really bizarre.</p>
  7. <p>I am trying to post a couple of pictures of my Visoflex, but have no idea how to do it...</p>
  8. <p>Hello, <br> I have been going nuts for a while with a Visoflex and Bellows I bought sometime ago. I probably am too silly to figure out what the problem is. I have tried the Visoflex on my MM and previously on an M9P with exactly the same issue. I can get a perfectly clear image on the mirror of the Visoflex, but when I see the picture I've taken it is totally out of focus, or rather, the image does not have anything whatsoever in focus. I have shot with a 40mm Summicron, and the 90 Elmarit, and I also have tried an R to M adapter on the Bellows so I could try some of the R lenses I own. Always the same problem. I have read a lot of posts in internet, and looked through manuals, but the use of the Visoflex seems really simple, I must be missing something.<br> I would really appreciate any help or any light into this subject.<br> Thanks a lot in advanve. Best wishes.</p>
