paul a. roid Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 hello all,<br> I'm interested in mounting filters on my Rolleiflex 3.5E.<br> I did some research and want to go with modern screwmount<br> filters. <p>My Rolleiflex's taking lens is a 3.5 Schneider Xenotar<br> Am I right that this is a Bay II mount?<p> thank you for your help...

awahlster Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Markus there is a seller on ebay USA that sells a very well made Bay II to 49MM adapter. I bought one for my 1956 3.5E and with the adition of a 49 to 48mm step down I can use all the filters I have collected up for years that fit my Canonet G-III QL-17 so for me I got everything with no cost save the adapter. Works great with a polarizer I just clip it on the viewing lens and adjust remove and place it in the same position on the taking lens and it works out quite well.

paul a. roid Posted May 17, 2004 Author Share Posted May 17, 2004 thank you all. Mark, I tape measured 49mm on my 'flex<br> and find it pretty big for the 3.5 lens. Does a 49mm filter<br> cover the viewing lens in any way?<p> Markus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
