F bellows

Listers,

Recently I purchased a Nikon F bellows in the hope that it would fit either my Nikon 7000 or 3200.

It does not fit as it fouls on the hand grip and will not mount.

Please, ideas or comments?

Would a small ext tube move it far enough/

Mike,

Thanks for the reply.

I have thought of that but do not have one. I was hoping that someone had tried it.

Short of taking a dremel to the bellows I doubt you're going to get it to mount without some kind of extension.

It is new so I would rather sell it on than attack it

Just buy the cheapest 36mm extension tube you can find. Problem solved.

Hello,

Thank You for the reply and suggestion.

Listers,

I have had the bellows unit mounted on my 7000. It is possible to rotate the mount on the bellows and then it mounts to the 7000. I have taken a couple of images using a 105mm lens and the results are good and can be made MUCH better. Seems like this might be a lot of work. More later.
