Hello
Today the Postman (or rather Postlady in our case) brought me a parcel from Germany. And this beauty was inside the parcel :
Novoflex Noflexar 400mm & 600mm, Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy


The lenses are in excellent condition, just a bit of dust on the outside, easy to clean. The only problem is that the bellow is a Rollei mount and I need a Nikon mount
Embarassed


That's all for the moment, I've to pick up my daughters at school and pay my taxes.

Andreas

Andreas, if you can't find a Novo->Nikon mount for a sensible price, here's what you can do.
Get a COA mount - that's the Novo to M42, and then a glassless M42->Nikon adapter cheaply on ebay. The COA cost me €19 and they're the most common Novo connector, thus the price is low.
I use the COA on my K10D, to good effect, but I'm now fitting it with a permanent M42->PK adapter, loctited on, to stop the tendency to unscrew, as M42 does sometimes.

Yes Atilla, it was a good catch. I placed a bid much higher than I really had to pay. Very Happy
Dave, thanks for the information. I'll look out to find one. OT : there will be one Irish more in seven months, one of our friends announced us that she's pregnant.
