Hi,
I am in the process of restoring a european half plate and japanese bookform back camera and would like to be able to use my modern 4x5 Fidelity Elite cassettes from time to time as well.
What I have seen in my research is that I can either
a) Attach a whole modern back onto a wood plate that fits either camera (rather easy but not so pretty?)
b) Build a holder from scratch out of wood (pretty but harder to do?)
I have found this talented guy building a wood back with a nice detailed documentation but not precise measurements http://www.apug.org/forums/forum147/...eld-cam-2.html
Now, does anybody have any source that shows how to build a [reducing] back with measurements?
The main thing I am concerned with is the film plane basically, which makes me unsure about the building from scratch part.
Thanks for you input!
