Hello,
I acquired a nice 162 Optar for my late model Crown with top RF, but before I purchase(if i can find it) a cam I would like to ask anyone who knows or has used the 162 set up which cam was best for the 162: p11 for 159.5mm, p12 for 161, or the p13 which is 162 proper.
The reason I ask is that my Crown came with a p31 for 132mm, but works well with its 135 Optar and my Symmar 135.

If anyone can answer this I appreciate the help,
Regards,
Stephen

Take your lens to an optical test center and have it checked for focal length then look for/get the cam that is closest to the measurement.

ALTERNATIVE: Make a guess!

I found a post by a Jim a while back wherein he syas he has one set up and may send an email to find out which cam it has...

Thanks, it may just be a guess and in that case I will ttry and get the P13 for 162mm.
