Can I use it with a 65mm nikkor???
It might be kind of difficult. The flange to film distance will be different, so you'd probably have to shim it somehow.Quote:

The flange distance of the 65mm nikkor is almost identical to the super angulon if I remember right. Shouldn't need much shimming if any, especially if you're shooting at smaller apertures.
There was an update today...
Yes. It essentially said that they had a lot of parts finished and had received those, but not all of the parts are ready yet. No mention of time, but my guess is it will be close to summer before they are ready to ship. I used to work construction and understand how schedules slip. First you calculate how long it should take, as accurately and precisely as possible, factoring in all potential variables. After long experience I learned that if I then doubled that time I would be getting close to reality....
No worries boys. You are making progress. Just keep beavering away and you will finish in the time it takes.
Best, Tim
Good to hear. Things are moving along. Obviously not as fast as they had hoped but I believe that the end product will be even better for the delays.
