Visoflex Kit. Fair price ?

[Dan95]

I am being offered a Visoflex kit :

VISO II w/prism

Elmar 90/4 (w/focusing helicoid for use on M mount cameras)

Hood IUFOO

Adapter OUAGO for use Elmar head on VISO

LEIEL for Elmar head on bellows

Novoflex bellows BALCO

39 mm to Leica M adapter

Extension ring

Misc spare parts n boxes

for 400USD. EXC- condition. Fair price ?

Will be using this on my MP to take photos of babies.

Can't use on my M8 though... unless I manage to get a chimney finder.

Whopps. Re-clarified with the seller, he's throwing in a prism from the Visoflex III.

So shall I ?

[Dan95]

Anyone ? Shall I take the plunge ?

If you also want to use the Viso on the M8, then look for the Viso III. As to your question, it seems that $400 is a tad high for an EXC- condition. The Viso II by itself should be under $200.

note old LTM-Elmar head may not focus infinity on M-Viso. test before pay.

Buy it if you like closeups (& have the $$) - it's great you will be able to use it on film and digital bodies
