I got this beautiful lens 3 days ago. I am still in the midst of making the adapter for it. Feels very solid and heavy. Mint condition.

This shot makes it looks like a parafait cup ! Laughing







The lens mount, Retina Compur electronic

That's a beauty, and something I've wondered about... is this for the Retina Relfex?

Yes it is. Kodak Retina Reflex. I can mount it on my Kodak Instamatic Reflex body.

Congrats ! Hope to see your samples soon when your adaptor comes. By the way, for mine, I was unable to achieve infinity due to the long flange distance of the adaptor. My adaptor now undergoes some modifications, hopefully able to reduce some distance.

Hi Kris,

Did you get that Instamatic Reflex working ? Just curious.

The camera is working great but there is only one problem, 126 film. I could not find the films over here and worst, people who can developed the film found to be nil. Crying or Very sad

The following I am going to say may sound bit "hurting". I actually took the mount out of the camera and made into an adaptor for the Schneider lenses. I see no point of letting the camera or the lens to just sit there, I want to make it work.

Shocking: I tried to focus indoor when I first mounted that nice lens.

No sharp image!? Shocked

Simple reason: too small rooms. This lens has nearest focus distance of 4 meters Embarassed
