Rollieflex Automat case - fit Seagull TLR?

[odille_esmonde_morgan]

Can anyone out there tell me if a case (leather) designed for a

Rollieflex Automat (info from seller) will fit my old Seagull TLR

(bought cheaply but great lens and takes good photos). The

holes for focussing etc appear to be in the right spots. Any

advice appreciated.

Hard to say for sure... the outside dimensions will be about right, but it really depends on the specific case, and which specific seagull you have (for instance, Seagull currently makes at least 3 seperate cases with different configurations.)

 

My guess is that it won't - but it you never know until you try.

Strikes me that a Rollei case might have a higher monetary value than a Seagull camera.

The original Automat is smaller then the Seagull. So I do not think that the Seagull will physically fit inside the Automat case. The later E and F are about the same size as the Seagull. I do have the F-case but my Seagull is the simpler knob wind model, so I can't check this for you. Sorry.

The focusing knob is larger on the Seagull than on the Rolleiflex Automats, and the Seagull has a flash shoe and the frame counter window in another place. You would have to cut the case a lot for the Seagull to fit, and that would ruin a Rollei case. :-/

BTW, I believe the Seagull case can be bought separatly, if it's for one of the newer models.
