stuart_whatling1 Posted August 2, 2001 Share Posted August 2, 2001 Just picked up a Schneider Super-Angulon 65mm f8 (with the chrome front barrel) in a compur 0 shutter. While the comments in the archive give varying assessments of this optic, it was cheap and pristine and the small size (49mm filter thread!) suits me, so I bought it. <p> The odd thing however is the board it was mounted on - it's a Sinar board with a cunning gizmo which looks like a shutter release for setting the aperture from behind. Furthermore, the usual white writing around the front also has "SINAR" in green. <p> My question is, was the only difference between this and a normal SA the extra little tab to engage the aperture ring with the remote control or is there something about the design that might make it unsuitable on a normal lens-board? <p> Finally, I notice that alongside the "X" and "M" settings for flash synch, there's also a "V" - which appears to be a self-timer setting. Was this a common feature on older lenses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart_whatling1 Posted August 2, 2001 Author Share Posted August 2, 2001 Oops - scrub the bit about Compur 0 - it's actually even smaller. The lens panel hole is approx 26mm - is that 00 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
