Wista M450 Doubts

Hi guys,

Last week I just bought my 1st LF, Wista M450 :) with tones of accessories, between them I have a back for 6x7 film that I cant attach to the camera body.

I need your help regardig this, maybe doenst work on this one?
I can´t find any useful information about this camera on the web. On the picture of the back theres a screw that I already taken out but still not fit the body

Please advice
Cheers

Its attach to the back

Here is a link to some information:

http://www.cameramanuals.org/prof_pdf/wista_m450.pdf

It appears to be a sales brochure rather than a service manual but it might give you an idea of how it should all go together.

This is another brochure which has some pictures. It is written in Swedish but I hope the photos are useful"

Thanks a lot Jeff

Hi Bruno,

There were different sliding adapters for different models of the Wista field cameras. I know that the adapters for the VX and RF do not fit the SP and 45N and 45D. The backs were also different!

Thanks Kumar

But unfortunately I do not have privileges to access the link :(

I guess you'll have to wait a few days, then :)
Or you could download the other Wista manuals from the cameramanuals.org link that Jeff provided, and see which camera your back fits.
