I have a set of Olympus OM bellows which haven't seen much use in recent years but by adding the 'Focus Stage' and removing the actual bellows bit you have a first class unit to fit many cameras.
Finding a focus stage for sale is the hard bit - I eventually homed-in on one (new!) at B&H in New York at a very reasonable price. B&H seem to have a bit of a 'mixed' rating from customers but I ordered my unit on a Thursday morning and it arrived the following Tuesday morning. This was a few weeks ago when the exchange rate was about $2 to the £ and the total cost including quite a lump for postage was £44

I'm reliably informed that 'Mr Cad' in Croydon
www.mrcad.co.uk have a s/h focus stage in stock for anyone with a set of OM bellows that they want to use as a focus-rail. No idea of the price, though.
