I'd appreciate any comments or thoughts on this project I'm starting. Basically it's trying to convert 35mm for 5x4" to accept panoramic format.

I've been working on converting a roll film back holder for the international 5x4" back to fit on a Sinar F2. Shelling out a 35mm cassette chambers from an old 1950's camera, I gather I need to fix these to accept a double sprocket trail for 35mm film and add a pressure plate.

The actual negative image would probably be of the same order as the Hasselblad XPan's dimensions and use 35mm cassettes.

The engineer I'm using is on vacation currently. I guess I'm not sure if I've thought this through carefully. I've never found anything like a 35mm film format adaptor for 5x4" either.

If I've overlooked any snags, please feel free to let me know.



The engineers are currently on holiday.
