Thanks everyone - I understand what I need - any clues where to buy it? and what's it called?

Is there a way to mount a Sinar f front lensboard holder (sorry not sure what to call it) on to a Sinar P bearer?

Thanks!!

I shoot the paper at ISO 100, but have to apply the filter reductions. in this case. it drops down to ISO12.

Yes, it is a lisianthus! RA4 is standard colour paper chemistry - I use it to make a colour paper negative. I have only scanned at this point, not contact printed.
