... On 9/13/2004 8:12 AM jjs spake thus: I think what you really meant to type (or should have) is "ain't no way you want to depend on *any rangefinder* in a custom construction unless ...". Nothing special, certainly nothing worse, about Kalarts compared to other RFs. So far I've found the Linhof rangefinder to be clearly more robust than the Kalart. They're all gonna need a lot of TLC to get working. On the other hand, it ain't exactly rocket science, and I don't see how a micrometer even enters the picture. The correct cam for the lens? Yes. He's going to have to make the cam and arm. That's fussy beyond words. |
