Does this mean that other long lenses (150mm, 120mm) will also have the newer design available for them?
I got back this as well:
"The new helical enables us to mount lenses longer than 120mm to the WRS, including Copal-1 lenses. The latter couldn’t be used in Schneider’s helical.
We’ve already fitted it to many different lenses, including a Schneider 210, this (very old) 150xl and the new Rodenstock 105 macro lens. However, every focal length requires its unique distance scale.
We’ve got a couple of versions in stock, but if someone hands over something unusual, we’ll need to calculate the corresponding scale and engrave it on the helical.
So the answer is yes, but always on request."
