Hello,

I currently use an ebony SW45 for both rollfilm 69 and 54.

For a particular project I need the movements of these cameras (specifically the tilt and swing of the lens plate) but in a smaller package so am looking at the SW23..it would involve trading my 45 for it but no problems there..I still have an older 54 monorail for the 54 shoots.

Now two simple question:

1. In use is the SW23 really more compact, lighter, etc than the SW45?

2.The rollfilm back I use on the SW45 is a horseman 69 roll film holder that has the large plate on it to fit the 54 size back.
Can I use this same holder on the SW23 by removing the back plate or would I need a new rollfilm holder made speciafically for the smaller back of the SW23?

Thanks,

Marc
