Rollei 6000 series Shutter Adapter
Hi all,
Do we have any Rollei 6000 series users in this group? I noticed there is the Shutter Adapter on FeeBay at the moment, and wondered if anyone had actually ever used one? Thanks, Roy. |

A worldwide search on eBay UK using similar search terms yielded "0 items found for Rollei Shutter Adapter". Searching on eBay.com finds the item with no problems. The reason it didn't show up on eBay UK is that the seller will not accept bids from the UK. |

Hey Tony, what lenses did you get with the Rollei? Sorry Matt, you did ask before but I deleted the thread before I had a chance to reply. The 6008i body came with a Carl Zeiss 80mm f/2.8 Planar. It is brand new with full warranty. There is also a 50mm f/4 Carl Zeiss Distagon which is unused (but sold without warranty) and a Schneider 150mm f/4.6 APO-Symmar Macro which is used, also without warranty. I intend to replace the Symmar Macro with a Carl Zeiss 150mm f/4 Sonnar because the Symmar doesn't give me the smooth out of focus rendition I am looking for. It's a beautiful lens, though. The deal also included three film backs (2x 120, one new, one used, 1x 220 unused), waist level and 45 degree prism finders, a grip and an adapter for an Imacon Ixpress digital back. I won't be rushing to buy the digital back just yet. ;-) |

I need a portrait lens for it, and the one I've heard the most about is the 120 Zeiss macro (or is that makro?!?). I haven't heard a lot about its out of focus characteristics, though. -- Regards, Matt Clara www.mattclara.com |

I haven't tried the 120 Zeiss Makro, but I would be more concerned about its performance at infinity when used as a short tele than its bokeh. I find that my 150mm Sonnar works pretty well as a portrait lens w/my 6008i. If I want a really tight shot, then I just use a short extension tube. Unless you are doing a lot of macro work and need the wider aperture (I have yet to see where that is a benefit in macro work -- usually I want the smallest practical aperture to get some DOF), extension tubes are a convenient and flexible alternative.
