john_stachlewicz Posted January 15, 1998 Share Posted January 15, 1998 Bill,Checkout E-bay auctions at http://cayman.ebay.com and search for Mamiya. There was a paramender 2 for sale earlier today. Bidding I think was at $60. <p> John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_rowin Posted January 16, 1998 Share Posted January 16, 1998 I recently purchased a Paramender in excellent condition from Ken-Mar Camera in Great Neck, NY, Phone 800-864-0513 or 516-482-1025. They appear in the Shutterbug every so often and seem to be sold as soon as that magazine appears on the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Bowes Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 Hello. Perhaps my reply will help others seeking a paramender or other similar device for the paralax correction needed on a TLR for close up shots. I use the #2 and #3 close up (diopter) lens's for my YashicaMat EM's in a "wierd" way. I do not use the viewing lens. I put the 2 or 3 "TAKING LENS" on the camera viewing lens, focus and then move the 2 or 3 to the camera taking lens (the lower lens). I now crank the tripod head up and place a wood block that has been cut to the center-to-center distance of the lenses between the camera and tripod neck. Lower the camera onto the block and you have instant paralax correction for about 11 cents (the wood). Enjoy, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
