es   The new Essenkay Adapter for the
   Automatic Rolleiflex camera contains
    four spool extensions (two plain, one
    slotted and one knurled), a plastic
   mask for the ground glass viewing
    screen, a metal exposure frame re-
   ducing mask, and a takeup spool.
    To use, open the camera and place
    the metal exposure reducing mask in
    the exposure chamber. Now place the
   two plain spool extensions in an 828
    size roll of film and install in the
    rramera. Place the knurled extension
   and the slotted exterrsion in opposite
    encls of the takeup spool. The takeup
   spoo! should then be placed in the
   camela so that the slotted extension
     fits in the flange on the film winding
   knob, and the knurled extension is in
   contact with the counting mechanism.
  Push the knurled extension down
   against the iilm counting mechanism
   so that the spool may be fastened in
   place by means- of the spring button
   on the side of the camera. Now bring
   the paper leader between the rollers
   as usual, and fasten to the takeup

spool. Close the back of the eamera
       but do not move the tension slide into
        place. Wind until number 3 is on the
       counting dial (shutter will have to be
       tripped twice) and slide the tension
        slide into place. The first exposure is
     now in place. Place the plastic mask
       over the ground glass viewing screen,
      with the narrow end to the back of
     the camera. Expose as you would
      with 120 film. 8 exposures may be
      secured on 828 film, and numbers on
       the indicating dial will run from B to
      10 inclusive. After exposing number
      10 on your counting dial, wind the
      paper trailer on the takeup spool and
     remove exposed film from camera.

      sions (two plain, one slotted and one
     knurled), a plastic lnask for the
      ground glass viewing screen, a metal

         fits in the flange on the film winding
      knob, and the knurled extension is in
       contact with the counting mechanism.
     Push the knurled extension down
      against the counting mechanism so
      that the spool may be fastened in
      place by means of the spring button
     on the side of the camera. (Note:
      Early models of the Rolleicord do not
     have the internal counting mecha-
      nism, so references to it may be dis-
      regarded.) Now secure the paper
       leader of the film to the takeup spool.

   to the back of the camera. Expose the

  remnved from the camera.
  Nnw STANDAnD ROLLEIf'r.tlx
    The new Essenkay Adapter for the
   Standard Rolleiflex cattera contains
7 four spool extensions (two plain, one/  slotted and one knurled), a plastic
  mask for the grqund glass viewing
   scfeen, a metal exposure frame re-
  ducing mask, and a takeup sPool.
    To use, open the camera and Place
   the m-etal exposure reCucing mask in
   the exposure charrrbcr Now place the
  two platn spool extensions in an 828
   size roll of film and install in the
  cameia. Place the knurled extension
  and the slotted extension in opposite
  ends of the takeup spool. The takeup
  spEol should then be placed in the
  camera so that the slotted extension
   fits rrr the frange of the fiim win<iing
  knob. and the knurled extension is
  in contact with the counting mecha-
  nism. Now bring the paper leader of
   the film up and secure it on the take-
  up spool, winding on iust enough so
   that the name of the film is across the
  spool. Close the camera and move the
   slide into place. Give the film wind-
  ing crank three and one-half com-
   plete turns, and the usual "half back"
  to cock the shutter. Number one is
 now ready for exposure. Place the
  plastic mask over the gtound glass
  viewing screen, with the narrow end
  to the back of the camera. After first
  exposure the automatic fiIm stop and
  counter will work as it does with 120
   size film. Make eight exposures, then
  go by the last fous (tripping the shut-
   ter) and unload ih the usual manner.
    SUPD|| TKONTA lt nnd RX
   The new Essenkay Adapter for
  these cameras contains four spool
  extensions (three plain and one slot-
  ted,), a metal exposure reducing
  mask, a takeup spool, and a small
  viewing mask. (Note: Viewing masks
  are different for the single and double

window rirodels of the Super B. Make
 certain your adapter unit contains
 the correct mask for your camera.)
  Turn dial to number one without
 engaging automatic loek. Slide the
 viewing mask over the view finder
 window. Open the camera and place
 the exposure reducing mask into the
 expo:ure chamber. Now place two
 of thc plain spool extensions in an
 828 size roll of fiIm and install in the
 camera. Place the slotted extension
 and the remaining plain extension in
 opposite ends of the takeup spool.
 The takeup spool should be placed in
 the camera so that the slotted exten-
 sion fits in the flange of the film
 winding knob. Now secure the paper
 leader of the film to the takeup spool
 and close the camera.
  With the Super B, wind film until
 counting dial is at number 6. (If care
 is taken in turning winding dial so
 lock does not spring, the winding of
 the film to number 6 can be done in
 one continuous operation.) The first
 exposure is now ready, so set dial
 back to number one and operate the
 same as with 120 size film.
  With the Super BX, set the red sig-
 nal and wind through number one
 (shutter must be tripped) to number
 2. Expose numbers 2 to 9 inclusive,
then continue to wind (shutter must
 be tripped on 10, 1,1 and 12) until all
paper is on takeup spool. Remove
exposed film as usual.
IIONE1LE NDFLEX. II(OFLBX II
      and IKOFLEX III
  The new Essenkay Adapter for
these cameras contains four spool ex-
tensions (three plain and one slot-
ted), a metal exposure reducing
mask, a plastic viewing mask for the
ground glass viewing screen, and a
takeup spool.
  To use, place the exposure reduc-
ing mask in the exposure chamber
 (it is advisable to tape the mask for
the Korelle Reflex in place by plac-
ing a piece of scotch tape straight
across the mask at the notches and
at right angles to the film track.)
Place two oI the plain spool exten-
sions in an 828 size roll of film and
install in the camera. Now place the
slotted extension and the remaining
plain extension in opposite ends of

 the takeup spool. The takeup spool
 should then be placed in the camera
 so that the slotted extension fits in
 the flange of the film winding knob.
 Connect paper leader from film to the
 takeup spool and close camera.
  The Korelle Reflex and late model
 Ikoflex II should be wound to num-
 ber ? on the exposure counting dial,
 when the first exposure will be in
 place. Now return the counting dial
 to number one. Place viewing mask
 over ground glass so that longer sides
 of frame are parallel with film travel,
 expose nine shots, and unload camera
 as usual. (Note: The older model
 Ikoflex II, with friction counting de-
 vice, requires installation of a film
 window in the back of the camera.)
  The Ikoflex III cameras should be
wound to number 3, when the first
 exposure. is in place. The counting
 dial cannot be returned to number
 one unless the back is opened, so
 the exposures on 828 film will show
as numbels 3 to 10 inclusive, when
 the film is removed in the usual
 manner.

spool. The takeup spool should then
be placed in the camera so that the
slotted extension fits in the fiange on
the film winding knob. No'*r secure
the paper leader of the film. to the
takeup spool and close the camera.
Wind until number 1 appears in the
window. Place mask over the view-
ing glass so that the picture is framed.
Film is advanced by watching the
number appear in the film window
while winding, just as with 120 size.
