I owned a Busch Pressman, it comes with a Heiland bulbflash. Also i becomes 3 objetive with this camera, Wollens. 90, 135, and a Ektar 127. (I think it was a good deal, the camera make great pictures.) They all have the old american 2 pieces for the flash cable. Now i am looking to an adapter to take new flashes like Metz, etc. Know's everybody about it? I have never seen such adapter.
Thanks in advance

Michael,

Go to http://www.paramountcords.com/custom.asp . Paramount will make practically any cord combination, including Graflex bi-post to Metz. It might be more expensive for you there in Germany with the weak dollar, but the product is excellent. Good luck!

Check the Syncrnisation, not all Shutters work in X-Synro. I have a 101/4,5 Ektar Lens. It dosent work with E-Flashes. I have check it with a cord from an E-Flash (def Haminex Stabblitzgerät).
The most old amerikan X Synro Shutter have an x in the sign. A test with a 135 Graflex Optar was poitiv.
If found an PC cord you can make a homemade lowprice adapter.
