As I recall, the PS-4/5 are compatible with the PB-4/5 bellows, but
the rail system is different with the PB/PS-6. The PS-4 offered
shift/rise, so the slide could be cropped off center (and the
PB-4 bellows offered tilt/shift - neat with a 100-150mm short-mount
lens or enlarging lens for mini-view-camera work). The PB-6 is
a modular system that offers quasi-auto diaphragm operation, and
possible additional bellows extension. I think only the PS-6 will fit
your PB-6...
