Chinese Made Arca Swiss to Linhof Adapter

[patapuss]

Hello All,

I am thinking of buying a Chinese knockoff Arca to Linhof lensboard adapter on Ebay. Does anyone have experience with such products and if so, are they trustworthy? Thanks in advance.

I use a version made for Sinar-Linhof and it works just fine. I am quite happy with it.

Good to know! :)

I wasn't aware that Switzerland was part of China. But I'm assuming you are referring to
lensboards. You take your chances. I've gotten Chinese knockoff lensboards shipped to me
which were useless they were so roughly made. I'd didn't want them in the first place, but
that's what got sent.

I ordered a Toyo-to-Linhof board from China, and it worked perfectly; same with all the lensboards I've ordered from China.
They are very good about returns, so your only risk is in the time spent waiting for the item to arrive.
