    What other film formats do you shoot other than original format?

    I guess, the question sounds a little bit more complicated ... To clarify, I'll start:

    I use my 4x5 to shoot 2x5's. I don't have any other adapter like 6x6 back or 6x9 back.
    My 8x10 Dorf is used for 4x10 and 5x8 as well.
    My 8x20 is used to shoot 7x17.

    How about you?

    I use my 4x5 to shoot (occasionally) 5x4s. ...a matter of perspective influenced by gravity.

    I use my 4x5 Cambo to expose 2x5, 35mm (old Practica camera mounted to back), 6x7, 6x9, 3x4 (Polaroid pack), and, of course, 4x5. A friend has a 6x6 back that will fit it if I ever want to use it.

    i shoot a graphic 23, and 22 back ( i think that is 6x7 and 6x6 ? ) with a series d slr ( 4x5 )
    i used to use a recomar 35mm back on the same slr, and a speed graphic.
    i sometimes use an in camera 7x11 mask with a 11x14 camera
    and will soon bypass the mask for a dedicated 7x11 back.

    Me too. I just made another darkslide mask today for my new Mido holders.

    I also have different reducing backs and rollfilm backs for various cameras (2x3" on 4x5", 4x5" on 8x10", 6x7, 6x9, and 6x9/6x12/6x17 rollfilm), but I think of those as standard formats.

    With my 4x5, I will shoot 2x5 as soon as I get around to cutting down the extra dark slide I have. Also have an Adapt-A-Roll 620 back in 6x9 and a Calumet C2 in 6x7. Wish I had a C2 in 6x12 but they cost more than my camera did.

    I sometimes crop my 5x7 negs down to a 6x17 format, but not very often.
