Hi Clive:
You're right, Grimes can make an adapter to put it in an Alphax. The
Super D has a 190mm Ektar and even though the camera has a focal plane
shutter, the release mechanism is linked to the semi-auto aperture
close-down during exposure. I could put the 210 on the camera but it
isn't worst the bother, (to me) for the extra 20mm.
