NOVOFLEX NOTE 2

Here is one of the most nicely finished and obscure bellows from Novoflex: The BALROL 66 for use of any Rolleiflex SL66 lens (including all Novoflex lenses manufactured for the Rolleiflex SL66) on 35mm SLRs using the standard Novoflex Adapters (ROLA, OMA, NIKA, CANA-AF etc.):



I wished it had an exchangeable rear standard and also allowed the adaptation to other medium format cameras like Mamiya 645, Contax 645, Pentax 645...

NOVOFLEX NOTE 1

1. Here is the most basic Novoflex accessory: The compact BAL-S bellows with Leica Thread Mount (M39) in the front and standard Novoflex bayonet in the rear for various N. camera adapters for almost every SLR from Ihagee Exakta to Canon EOS.



This can take any enlarger or Leica SM lens to get started in bellows photography from 1:1 to infinity. Especially elegant (aside from Novoflex lens heads) are older Leica SM lens heads from the Leica Elmarit 90 mm or Elmar/Hektor 135mm lens heads with the appropriate Novoflex adapter (e.g. LEIEL, LEIHEK), or the recessed Macro Tessar (I am looking for one!).

2. The second most useful Novoflex accessory: CASTEL - The original compact Novoflex focussing rail. Here shown with Novoflex Panorama Head mounted on a small N. ballhead. Missing is the small horizontal level NIVEL that is rarely included with CASTELs purchased used.
