Going to start the search to get a 120 roll film back and want to verify:

Camera: 4x5 Pacemaker with a Graflok back.
A '22' (6x6) or '23' (6x9) Graphic or Graflex 120 back will fit this?
Please correct me if wrong... thanks..

A Graflex roll holder(so marked) will fit a Graflex back. Won't fit a Graflok back.

A Graphic roll holder (so marked) will fit a Graflok back. But you have to get the right size. '22' and '23' refer to the size of the roll holder's gate, not to the size of the camera it fits. You need a roll holder on a plate to fit a 4x5 Graflok.

Thanks for the clarification that the Pacemaker needs a Graphic roll holder.. it can get confusing with the different backs and the terminology.

Sooo... will take a look and see what's available in a '22' Graphic Roll Holder.
Thanks again..

Peter, don't overlook the more modern RH-8, RH-10 and RH-12 roll holders.

Hey petter
A more newer & maybe better is one
Made by horseman 4x5
But anyway the one that you wont
is the one you need as in graphic
22 or RH12 are 2 1/4 sq
23 or RH8 Are 2 x 3 more or less
Almost 6x9
RH10 & RH20 are 67 or 6x7
"RH20 is 220 roll film"
So the first ? Is what size do you
Thank you will shoot

ok.. more to choose from.. thank you..

Banjo .. good to see a post from ya... I'm still using the 2x2 roll film adapter you gave me a lead on, for my 3x4, that I shoot color in, in that camera. Thanks again!
For the 4x5, the size I thought I would look for was 2x2. It's for testing an older lens, and experimentation with a new B&W film that I am using. Trying to get the development time down, and learn the idiosyncrasies of the lens.
