Correct Steve.
135 f:4 Elmar in M mount.
However, in that configuration
my copy has serious
range finder coupling
backfocus issues;
as well as no framelines.
So I tend to use only the lens head
on OTSRO tube with OTZFO focus mount
on the Visoflex III;
wherein it becomes
a delightful tool again.
Regards,
George Lottermoser
