Title: FS: Arca Swiss -> Hasselblad adapter, 6x9 camera
Post by: Graham Mitchell on March 13, 2007, 07:26:50 pm
I recently bought an Arca Swiss adapter on Ebay which was supposed to adapt Rollei 6008 film backs onto an Arca Swiss camera. It turns out that the adapter was for Hasselblad V film backs, so it is no good to me.

It may be of interest to someone out there with a digital back in Hass V mount - this is an easy way to get more out of your digital back.

Best offer over EUR 200 gets the adapter.

As the adapter fits the Arca Swiss 6x9 perfectly, I am also open to offers on the combination of the two. The camera comes complete with Linhof shutter and Schneider-Kreuznach 135mm f5.6 Symmar lens. Just attach your digital back on the mount, and the flash sync cable, and you're ready to go. I have never used this camera, but the shutter timing sounds right and the apertures work. Everything operates smoothly. I have also tested the flash sync. There are no light leaks that I could see. Camera has all movements on both standards. The ground glass doesn't look so good, but maybe that's just how the glass came on this model.

Best offer over EUR 800 gets the whole kit as seen here:

Adapter sold. I think I'll keep the camera.
