- Affordable alternative to the original prism: Use widely available Kiev 88 or Hasselblad V-System prisms directly on your Rolleiflex. Original prisms are extremely rare and expensive.
- Upright, laterally correct viewfinder image: More intuitive composition instead of the laterally reversed image in the waist-level finder.
- Exposure display stays visible: On modern models (e.g. 2.8 GX, FX), the internal light meter reading remains visible in the viewfinder.
- Locks in like the original waist-level finder: Secure fit of the third-party prism on the camera.

- Rolleiflex 2.8 GX / 2.8 FX / 4.0 FW

Description
If you want to use a Hasselblad prism instead of the waist-level finder on your Rolleiflex TLR, it won't simply fit onto the interchangeable viewfinder mount, and original Rollei prisms are extremely rare and expensive. We designed this adapter as a practical alternative. It lets you mount Kiev 88 or Hasselblad V-System prisms on your camera and locks in just like the original waist-level finder.
In depth
A technical note for transparency: due to its mechanical design, the adapter slightly increases the distance between the focusing screen and the eyepiece. Depending on the prism and your own eyesight, the grain of the focusing screen may therefore not appear perfectly sharp. This is generally not a problem for composition and focusing, but you should be aware of it.

Michael U.Verified purchase
Sitzt, passt, wackelt (kaum) und hat (fast) keine Luft
Ehrlich gestanden war ich vor der Bestellung ziemlich skeptisch. Ein gedruckter Plastik-Adapter an meiner Rolleiflex 2.8 GX? Schwerer Stilbruch.
Tatsächlich aber ist das Teil schön stabil. Der Hasselblad Lupensucher sitzt einigermaßen fest, auch wenn es vor-zurück (also in der Objektivachse) ein paar mm Spiel gibt, das stört aber nicht sehr. Der Adapter selbst wird
wie der Lichtschacht auf die Rolleiflex aufgeschoben und sitzt dann bombenfest. Dazu muss man vor der Montage noch eine winzige, beigelegte Schraube eindrehen, die an der Hinterkante in dem entsprechende Loch einrastet.
Alles in allem eine durchdachte Lösung - und derzeit auch die einzige, soferne man nicht das Glück hat, einen der raren Baier-Adapter zu ergattern.
Wieder mal: gut gemacht, Jungs!
