They are quite rare & sell at auction for $2,500 to $5000. There was a copy of one made by Haber & Fink, New York that sells for about $1500 or more. Another item that was a turret for the Visoflex that held 3 filters (14116) and these sell for $100 to $300 & are less rare. Happy New Year Marvin Moss =========================================================== In a message dated 97-12-28 12:25:23 EST, you write: << Back in the 1940s, Leitz Canada made a three screw lens turret adapter for, I believe, an M2 or an M3 which attached to the camera via a bayonet mount on the rear of each lens - or some such. Memory fails. Is this a desireable collectible, and is there a source for info on it. Thank you, HB >>
