I am interested in the line of repro lenses sold by Agfa/Staeble/Eskofot, with the name of Helioprint/Repromaster/Ultragon/Intergon.
It's a line of repro lenses, probably of plasmat design (they have a good coverage vs. FL), made in Germany by Staeble.
I'd like to mount the shorter focals in bellows (for Pentax 6x7, 35mm and DSLR use), and the longer ones on a Novoflex flow-focus outfit, for "macro hunting".
If somebody owns some (or all) of them, i'd like to know the mount threads.
Before looking for some of them on Ebay, i must know if there is a cheap way to mount them via stacked step-up/step-down rings. Having a couple of adapters rings custom machined is too expensive, and it would negate the whole point of searching/buying such lenses: they are still cheap, despite their very good quality.
I am especially interested in the thread diameters of the 80mm, 135mm, 150mm, 210mm, 240mm versions. For the sake of completeness, and for future reference, it would be nice to get the same infos about the 270mm and the 213mm (which is a different beast, btw).
thanks in advance
Paolo

That's more or less what i expected. From the pictures i saw that the threads were different. Small diameter for the shorter ones.
That's why i'm asking... If the threads have a 0.75 pitch there are so many inexpensive chinese rings, that stacking a couple of them should allow to give a standard mount (M42x1 or LTM) to at least some of the Repromasters.
cheers
Paolo

I'm not sure of the pitch, on the 210 and 240 they look like 1.0 to me.
