<p>I beleive that you have a 35mm kit for the Rolleiflex. I have to go back and look it up for you. This might be the later kit that included the counter (upper right corner).<br>

The top middle mask and the lower right corner mask are the WLF viewfinder mask.<br>

The top left mask and the lower middle mask, I beleive are the 35mm mask and Superslide mask respectively.<br>

The lower bottom Left mask, I am unsure of. It might be the mask for the inside of the camera body against the rear lens panel.</p>

<p>I have the older Rolleikin 35mm kit for the older 2.8C,D,E,E2,E3, and F. Those mentioned bodies would had the 35mm counter installed on the upper knob outside of the body. I have a 35mm spindle that goes inside to activate the counter.<br>

Hopefully if anyone else can identify these parts correctly, please feel free to speak up.</p>

<p>It is kit to make 24 exp. (28x40) on 120 film. But I have no idea how to install counter?</p>

[evan_dong1]

<p>Well I see that you have the 35mm mask and if you say that its for 120 film, then the 28X40 mask could be the 6.45 mask. I have to check my 6.45 mask kit and let you know what you are missing....<br>

<p>That kit fits the Rolleicord Va and Vb, with removable frame counter.</p>

[jack_welsh]

<p>The 28x40 looks like a 3x4 mask. Superslide is usually 40x40, and the 645 would be 2 1/4x 1 5/8.</p>

<p>Hi Brian<br>

It meens I got wrong kit?<br>

Best George</p>

[BrianS1664879711]

<p>I think so, George. If your counter cannot be removed (and it looks like it cannot) this kit will not fit your camera.</p>

[BrianS1664879711]

<p>Take a look at this site:</p>

<p><a href="http://www.rolleiclub.com/cameras/tlr/info/rolleicord.shtml">http://www.rolleiclub.com/cameras/tlr/info/rolleicord.shtml</a></p>

<p>Your camera is a Rolleicord V. The model following, the Va, had the removable counter so this type of unit could be used.</p>

<p>If you want to shoot smaller film you'll need to look into a Rolleikin 35mm adapter.</p>

[BrianS1664879711]

<p>Of course, you could consider the alternative...getting another camera, like a Va or Vb. :)</p>

<p>I've used the 16-kit on my Vb to make 40x40 SuperSlides. It works real well and is fun at the same time.</p>

<p>When you do 40X40 for slides, does that mean you can view with 35mm slide projector? I have a Vb with 16 kit installed, and a Rollei 4X4 that produces slides that work wonderfully in a conventional projector. It would be great to be able to do the same with the Vb. Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Patrick</p>

[BrianS1664879711]

<p>Yes, the SuperSlide is 40x40mm image area (approx) in a 2x2 inch slide. It projects with a regular projector. I don't know if they are still in existance but I used the Gepe glass-mount holders. The SuperSlide tends to pop more than 35mm slides so the glass helped alot (but were more expensive).</p>

<p>The 16 kit actually gives you a 40x60 mm (maybe a bit less than 60, actually) image area... and you cut it to 40x40.</p>

<p>I was able to buy several boxes of the Gepe 4x4, (and 828) special ordered through my local camera store. I had to buy several boxes of each one. Which was fine with me.</p>
