Hi -

I'm looking for a 6X7 rollfilm back for my new Century (which came with a 6X9), but am confused as to the sizes. Is there a separate size back for the 2X3 and 3X4 cameras, or is the RH10 a standard size that fits both? Can the RH10 be removed from the 4X5 holder?

thanks.

Sounds like a little reading is in order.

First, check here for info about roll film backs:

Your Century has a Graflok back and will accept the RH10 and RH20 rollfilm holders in the 2x3 size only. While the innards of the respective roll holders are the same for all formats, the shells are sized to fit the particular camera format, and are therefore not interchangeable from one camera format to another. So if you have a 3x4 or 4x5 roll holder, it won't mount on your Century.

thanks. I think that the literature on the site is ambiguous.
