Orthoplan & Ortholux II condenser holder

#1 Post by luxikon » Wed Mar 28, 2018 12:11 pm

Hello,

I have red the Leitz Orthoplan and the Ortholux II have the same focussing block. I would like to know, whether the condenser holder of an Orthoplan, which I can get, would fit my Ortholux II, which I want to restore.

Regards
Klaus

Looking at an Ortholux 2 manual online and having an Orthoplan myself I would say that they have the same condenser-holder. They both use the same 'bathtub' 600 series slide-in condensers so you should be OK.
