According to a Leica booklet covering all Visoflexes and bellows, it appears
that to put a 90mm Elmar lens head on a Viso I bellows you need a UOOWV adaptor
tube, which accepts the lens head and then screws into the UOOYW ring you now
use to mount your Hector.  This should allow focus from infinity to 1.4x
enlargement.  Don't know how easy these UOOWV tubes are to find.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Kip
