John Seaman Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I've acquired a nice Rollei Pistol Grip for my 3.5F. One thing is puzzling me, what is the purpose of the grooved forward extension? It has a fixing screw with a 3/8 thread. Could it be for a flash attachment? I can't find anything about it in L.A. Mannheim's "The Rollei Way". Mine has a metal cover which appears home made. Here it is - thanks in advance: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustin McAmera Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 You're right: it's for a flash bracket. It's in one of the Accessories guides at Mike Butkus' site: This page, and it's page 11 of the blue 'Practical Accessories', second document down at time of writing: https://butkus.org/chinon/rollei/rolleiflex_booklet/rolleiflex_booklet.htm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a generous site - I send him a few $€£ from time to time, just to make sure he knows I appreciate his efforts. Niels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
