Rollei Automat IV Knob question

Postby BorisBulldog » Fri Feb 21, 2014 2:02 pm

I just bought a CLA'd '51and am waiting for the 120 film to arrive to load it up.

After reviewing the owners manual the take up knob (see 2nd pic) is a bit confusing to me. There are a set of #'s from 1-36 but nothing moves on that dial except it pulls out to release the finished film. Does anyone know what the #'s represent?

Thanks,

Try to find a free download of the instructions on the web and search for "Rolleikin" ...

Thanks Jan,

It looks like the previous owner installed the Rolleikin kit but kept the internals for himself and left the knob for me.

No problem, as I don't plan on shooting with 35mm film.
