Hoppy, what you need is the focusing mount and the 65 elmar: the  
sweetest little Visoflex set up available IMHO. The front lenes from  
the 135 and I think the 90 are also very handy, but I would need to  
get out the books to check those ones. A bellows unit is also nice:  
wonderfully made.


Cheers
