I bought a MPP lens board (it was cheap..) for the Microtechnical Mk 8 and was surprised to see that it had a 39mm hole. As far as I had understood, the #1 is 41.6mm and after some research I have found two things, first off that there was a bunch of these lens boards made so it is not an one off. One of the "kit lenses" probably used this sized lens board, does anybody know more about this?
Second, I see that there are a lot of Copal 1 lens boards for sale with a 39mm hole. Isn't this too small? Can this be used with a Copal 1 shutter?
The hole is not threaded, i have measured it to be pretty exactly 39mm, maybe a tenth of a millimeter larger, maybe two.
Thankful for any information you guys might have about this!
Kind regards,
