Hello everybody!
I am new to this forum and just got a beaten old Speed Graphic. Works nice and the 127mm Ektar is a nice lens so far, it got that little old fashioned look in the lights (a certain non Leica glow;) ). Shooting B/W sheets at the moment (Fomapan 100) and try to fight the strange behavior of this old emulsion - the shadows tend to block in an instant - I'll rate it more a 32 film then a 100 at the moment...
But heres the question: because I've got a couple of Mamiya RB backs it would be nice and convenient to use them on the Speed. Is there an adapter to mount the small graflock type backs (like the Mamyia RB or 2x3 cameras have got) to the 4x5 Graflock Back on my Speed?
Any hints very welcome. It seems so stupid to get another 6/7 back for the Graphic - have enough of them already, in the wrong mount...
Cheers, Michael
