Arca-Swiss: Any Technika adaptor for it?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Large format photography : One Thread

I have adopted the Technika lensboards long ago. Having not only one camera, most manufacturers have an adaptor for the smaller Technika boards. I have not seen one listed in Arca-Swiss price lists. I know they have their own small lensboards. Is there something existing or would a custom made Technika adaptor be difficult to make?

Dear Paul, Arca only list 200005 an adapter for Linhof boards to ARCA 171mm X 171mm .They do not show an adapter for Linhof to baby ARCA 110 boards..... I guess the two boards are very close in size. Robert

You can also use the older Arca-Swiss AB version of the Technika to Arca-Swiss adapter. While the old style bellows cannot be use on the F & M-line cameras the lensboards can.
