I can describe, but if you email mail me through my website:

I'll send you a drawing I made back when I worked at Omega
specific for the purpose of explanation.

About 20 or 30 years ago they came out.
I have mounted my share of enlarger lenses and have never found any of
the usual ones that will not readily mount in a D5. Turret or not. But
I am more than willing to learn anything.

Tell me whaic 50mm you want to mount?

FWIW The D5 is very similar to a D6 and the D6 came out before the D5.
And there was a D3 and D4.


I can tell you Bob at least one the New Nikon 50mm does not work work
with a turret. There's at least one Rodagon that does not either. Been
there done that.... a hundred times, they may mount but they sure don't
focus or turn on the turret... one or the other its a problem.

My 50mm 2.8 Rodagon won't work in the turret. With a flat mounting
plate the turret won't rotate or focus. With the extended plate it'll
rotate but not focus.
