In Reply to: New to medium format. Questions about getting started. posted by Joe on August 16, 2000 at 08:01:56:
: I am interested in finding the right Graflex camera. Is there
one that takes 120 film which will give me a 6x9 format? (I suppose
it depends on the back attached to the camera, correct?) Also, if I
got, say, a Crown Graphic, what model of Polaroid back does it take
and what is the model number of film to use in it? I've never
worked with polaroid, but I think it would be a lot of fun to with
this type of camera. One last question, if I got an earlier model
speed graphic *without* the Graflok back, does Calumet really make
a back that will attach to it that enables me to use 120 rollfilm?
Thanks!
-------------------------------------------------
For flexability--120 rollfilm >and< Polaroid--you
must choose a 4x5 Speed or Crown--4x5 backs are the only thing that
Polaroid offers--Calumet makes
a 120/220 adapter that fits like a 2 sheet holder
The backs and the 4x5 cameras are avail curently
