Which Metered Prism for RB Pro S?

[snegron]

I was just looking at two metered prisms for my RB Pro S. The first one is a CDS prism and the second is a Prism Model 2. Which one is compatible with the RB 67 Pro S body? Both appear to be in good condition, but the Prism Model 2 looks more modern. I have heard that C lenses are compatible with newer RB models with an adaptor, I wonder if the same is true with the prisms?

If it works with the RB67 Pro S should work with the RB67 Pro, or the RB67 ProSD I would think, far as prism goes the only time it would not work, is if it was made for the RZ67.

I have an RB67 ProS and I use the CDS prism. Don't know about the Model 2.

The model 2 looks like it would fit the RZ. I'm guessing that it was mistakingly posted as if would fit the RB. I did see another prism, looks like a stovepipe. I think it's called the magnifier finder. Would this magnifier finder have a meter? Also, would I be able to view the entire frame or just a small portion at higher magnification?

The Model 2 will fit the RB.

No meter in the magnifier.

The magnifying view finder (stove pipe) was available in both metered and non-metered models. The metering model uses a cds cell.

Opps. My mistake. Good to know.

I have the 2, and it is larger, although lighter than the earlier model. This I have heard is due to the size of the prism in the earlier model. Both will fit on an RB, RB ProS and ProSD.
