The idea of having a lens that can be used for portraits and other short tele applications AND focus down to 1:1 is intriguing. Basic principle seems simple - set shutter speed and aperture, use bellows to focus, press cable release and make a pic. My questions: 1. How easy/difficult it is to use compared to a regular lens? 2. Does it work with the EL series bodies? Or does the rail get blocked? 3. Do the metered prisms compensate exposure correctly? 4. Does the bellows have exposure compensation factors on it? 5. Other considerations?

Does the bellows have exposure compensation factors on it? Yes, they do. But I don't tink that they are accurate. I use my bellows only with a 80mm lens.

The ring on the PM-5 comes off almost immediately when I try to use it. Has anyone found a way to make the rubber ring on the PM-5 fit securely. > -----Original Message----- > From: Waldo Berry [mailto:WBERRY@dce.ksu.edu] > Sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2000 10:03 AM > To: hasselblad@kelvin.net > Subject: Re: new prism > > > You can wear glasses with the PM51 also, just pay $6.00 for > the round veiwing rubber buffer ring and it works great. > > Waldo > > Waldo O.
