PS: All I need now for this is a f1.8 50mm Hood, anyone have one in decent shape for a nice price?

That wrist strap looks very similar to the ones supplied with Canon Demi's - eg ebay item number: 170150123366

Hmmmmm thanks for pointing that out, so it`s a late 1950`s early 1960`s one then 🙂

Well, I lucked out tonight and found the original Canon f1.8 50mm hood now to add and complete the stepup ring assembly on my "user" IIF2 on the evilbay.....

Good price too $28 (with postage from Aussieland) for an original hood, not too shabby 🙂
*funny but I seem to find alot of kool stuff out of Australia and New Zealand for RF Canon`s*

Tom

PS: Well, my Canon pallet is just about complete, I have an interest in finding two "late" black bodied lenses someday -
the f1.4 50mm and the f2.0 100mm

Hello, do the following:
1. remove left window cirular ring rotate lens very slightly, this is the Vertical adjustment.
2. Remove cover large screw in right window left side. Use jewelers straight slot, turn screw clock wise very slightly for horizontal adjustment.
Note: horizontal adjustment does cause vertical adjuatment to move, its a very quick process.

3. reseat cover screw and ring,,,, Easy as pie!
