Yes let us know if it fits. I strongly suspect it was something Prontor made custom for Plaubel.

Prontor seems to have made Plaubel Makiflex Cable Releases, there is a strong family resemblance that I am detecting. So it would make sense they also made them for Makinas. I'd like to have one for myself, actually :smile:

Kodak XX 120 D23 1to1 Plaubel Makina Back by Nokton48, on Flickr

First rolls freshly developed Eastman Double-X XX 120 in Plaubel Makina 6.5x9cm Film Back. Plaubel Makina II with 100mm F2.9 Soft High Speed Lens Anticomar. Also Plaubel Peco Junior View Camera with Broncolor Strobe Lighting. D23 1:1 JOBO Multitank 5 (six roll capacity) Unicolor Uniroller. 12 minutes at 68F. Beefy looking negatives as I am used to with 35mm XX. These will all be easy to print with the usually XX qualities but in the superior larger format. Bravo to the Creator of this! More coming I like this film :smile:

Plaubel Makina Film Back is playing nicely, as u can see!

Yes Great Thanks for that!

There seem to be plenty of Olde Prontor Releases around, which is good. I just bought an early double release at a good price.

Makina IIIR New to Me Prontor Cable by Nokton48, on Flickr

Bought this Prontor Cable Release for $16 on Ebay. Works like it was made for it on the Makina IIIR! And your finger fits just fine if you want to manually trip. This will help me make sharper pix in certain circumstances. Recommended for Makinas!

The Reporters Camera IIIR F4.2 283 Tripod Attachment by Nokton48, on Flickr


I want to use this as a "Reporter's Camera" as would be done in the day. Adding the Makina Tripod Adapter, gives tremendous stability to the camera, and it lines up perfectly with the Stroboframe Bracket I use for portable flash photography. The thyristor in the 283 makes for auto flash photography with the IIIR. It's a tough brute of a camera, suitable definitely for Press Use, simply by adding the Tripod Adapter.
