this is original Toyo adapter

now to add some confusion to mix there was older 45A on ebay with L front standard. it was not an adapter but a barer like on II-L. normally i would say its retrofit but top lens-board lock was different shape. then again in link on this forum i see same type of a45 with what appear to be older L version. am sure there is tons of variations out there.

there is a small difference in II-L and normal Toyo Field 110mm to Linhof Technica adapter. if adapter is used there is several that lens is moved farward and apperently this can be problematic for 65mm lens. now i dont know if this is real issue or just another theoretical fact. in any case i have toyo to linhof adapter incoming and i will be reporting on this as well.

Alan- toyo makes adapter and there is also a clone that Ruby makes

this adapter really makes life easier specially in my case where i often land or borrow, lenses from friends

Thanks! I don't own a Toyo myself but my good friend Harold owns a 45A. I'll let him know about the Ruby clone.

You can get the schematics on the Toyo's from the service department at MAC and can order the instruction manuals here: http://toyoview.com/AskToyo/toyo_orderbklts.html

And the original Toyo field-to-Horseman field adapter:





Yes, the foam on this one is badly deteriorated. Because of the deep recess, this adapter too may not fit on some non-Toyo cameras that accept Toyo field boards.

Oren that Toyo 80mm Horseman recess must be a rare thing! i wounder if any of you guys have that rear standard extension box?

i know this is childish but... am looking in to ordering a custom bellows in case i decide to keep my new A45II as a replacement for my Technika. if am ordering custom bellows i could go Red, or Green or Gray... its a nice touch and it will make it more personal.
