Voigtlander Kontur viewfinders

Hi,

I allready own 3 different models of the viewfinder Kontur from Voigtlander. I

have and use the 335/23 (24x36 without parallax) with my lovely Vitessa "barn

doors", and a 335/82 (6x9 with parallax) with my BessaI.

I miss the 335/70 (6x6) for my PerkeoII and that model is far less easy to

find.

As I have a thrid one (335/36 24x36 with parallax) no more usable because the

front slide is in bad condition ... my project is to make a new slide (6x6).

 

Is somebody of you who own a 335/70 (6x6) can scan the front part of his Kontur

viewfinder and sent it to me that would be great. Other possibility, is to take

a pic of the front and sent that pic to me with measurement of the frame lines.

If that project is working, I have in mind to make other new slide as a special

version of the 6x9 with line for 24x90 panoramic...

 

And last part of the project is not make a pdf file with all the slides so that

way everybody interrested will have the possibility to print them and change

the slide in his Kontur regarding the used camera.

 

Thanks for any help.

I see the xxx/xx designation while referencing German cameras (mainly). I noticed this first when buying some Zeiss rangefinders. What do these designate: manufacturer/model or something? Thanks for letting me add-on to this.

I just bought a 6x6 on eBay. It may take a week or two, but I'll see what I can do about getting a scan of it. Have to find a scanner. I'll see if I can get a metric ruler to put alongside the Kontur.

 

I love this finder.
