Hi,
I wanted to resore one Linhof 13x18 technika and tryed to replace the bellows.
I have done it one time to a technika 4x5 and it worked fine. I get a china bellows last time so I did it the same this time too.
to my surprice I get a bellows with wrong size at the front. I recognized that the sizes on the discribtion are wrong at all- how stupid is that, chinese produce bellows with wrong sizes! the problem now is that the size is too big to fix it on the front standart-
the bellows itself is well made and it does not smell bad... sadly, a stupid manager lets people produce item with wrong sizes.
All the bellows on ebay from chine has these wrong sizes, I mean nobody will ever use it, it is crazy....
My question is : knows anybody an alternative, where i can get a new bellows, not so expensive as linhof offer, but who simply knows what he sells.
