FP-100C instant film on a Linhof Technika III?

[Bowie]

Hi,

I recently got a 4x5 Linhof Technika III and I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a way for me to use the Fujifilm FP-100C Film with it.

Yes, you'll need a Polaroid 405 holder to use this film.

Do you know if it would fit into the back of this Linof?

It is so thick it probably won’t slide easily behind the spring-loaded ground glass frame like film holders do (dunno for the III, but it doesn’t on the Master or the V). It does fit by applying quite a bit of force, but it is so tight it is almost unusable.

The solution is to take off the GG frame each time and attach the 405 holder with the Graflok clips.

Apparently (http://www.apug.org/forums/viewpost.php?p=1340106) some early models of the III didn’t have the Graflok clips.
