The more I search and read, the more confusing it gets. I've got a Crown Graphic, which I've used so far successfully with a Polaroid film holder. The camera is out for repairs, but in the meantime, I've acquired 3 wooden film holders in virtually like new condition. They are specifically "4x5 Graphic Film Holder Type 5, Made in USA by Graflex Inc, Rochester N.Y.". Will these work on my Crown Graphic with Graflok?

They should work fine. As long as the product says "Graphic," you ought to be in good shape. |

They will work fine. Be sure to clean them well before use, especially the felt light trap where the dark slides enter. They are always full of dust, which will land right on your film. Blow them out with air.

Thanks. I love the feel of those wooden holders. And thanks for the tip about cleaning. I probably would not have thought of that. Now, if I can just get my Crown Graphic back, I'll be in business. |
