I'm looking for a new 6x7 (or 6x8) 220 roll film holder for my Arca-Swiss 6x9. I've been using a Horseman 6x9 holder with the Arca adapter, which works fine, but I'm not especially fond of the long, skinny 6x9 format. I also find the little film-release button annoying. I gather that Horseman no longer makes 220 backs, guess I could find one used, or go 120, though I hate changing film all the time.
But I know there are other Arca 6x9 users out there, so here's my question: has anyone else been through this process and is anyone liking anything else these days-- like a Mamiya 6x7 back or even the 6x8 motor-driven model? Or something else I'm not aware of? If so, how are film registration and flatness? Ease of use? Thanks!
