Hi Friends,

What would you do if you have a shutter from a agfa isolette, lenses from a Rolleicord and a RB67 Back?

Weekend Project 🤣

Very nice work! Please post test photos when you have them..that’s a sweet lens. One more thing though—you should find a badge from a Hasselblad and mount it on the front, just to lure curious onlookers.

Does that 75 mm lens cover the 6x7 frame well?

I made something similar for a 47mm lens. If you can find one, Angulon or Ilex Acugon, it can be a fun large pocket camera.

Is the helical bought, or printed yourself? Assuming that there is a helical, of course.

Would love to see more about how to designed the graflock back system to attach the RB67 back!
You designed it yourself in CAD?

Great build, none the less!

The helical is from ebay

I just measured the rb67 back a draw it in freecad, the metal parts are from a graflex i think.

Good job! 6x7 can always be cropped, but at closer distances the lens should cover the frame well.
