In Reply to: Kalart and the 65 Optar? posted by Dennis Lee on November 08, 2000 at 19:44:35:: The Kalart rangefinder on my Century Graphic is
: currently adjusted to a Schneider 105/4.5 Xenar.
: I'm thinking of re-adjusting the rangefinder to a
: Wollensack 65/6.8 Optar. I read the instructions at
: this site and it doesn't seem like it would be too
: difficult.
The Kalart Rangefinder only will
adjust to 80mm on the short end.
: Can the Kalart be adjusted to work on the 65? The
: change wourld be a rather large jump in focal
: length from standard. Or am I better off using the
: slower method of focusing via 105 and resetting to
: a 65 focus scale on the track?
