Mounting a Sinar Copal DB Shutter on a Sinar Norma

[Andrew Scotney]

Can I mount a modern - DB type - Sinar Copal Shutter (with aperture control) onto a Sinar Norma? (I have read somewhere that the aperture control / knob may be obstructed by the Norma 'U' frame).

I had heard this rumor too so now when I saw your qustion I tested my DB Copal ( biggest f-stop f 5,6 about 1o years old) shutter on
the newly bought Norma and there was no hindrance neither in the function of the shutter/ DB lens combination nor in the function of the camera.
