dan, thanks for re-uploading the pictures! Now I see what all the previous commenters complimented you for... what a beautiful job! And cool pictures you took with it. Can't await the arrival of my SL26 now...

dan, I love the idea of improving the close-focus on the 80mm lens. Say you wanted to focus to ~50 cm in front of the lens. Would you have to pull out the tube es far as can be seen in pictures? Or would a smaller amount be sufficient?

By the way: Did you reuse the Sl26's leatherette on your adapter to cover the obsolete shutter speed scale? How cool is that? Wink

With the tube completely extended the 80mm lens can focus to ~40 cm.
No, I didn't reuse the Sl26's leatherette Smile . I still have a few sheets of self-adhesive leatherette of the Hasselblad V type and I use them in all my projects. I like the way this Hassy leatherette looks and the adhesive proved in time to be quite resistant.
