Hello,
I almost finish to build the back film holder for my camera, and I bought a pair of 270mm Tele-Arton lenses.
does someone of the group have the cam for the 270mm lenses, can he/she send me a very good high resolution flat scan of the cam, I will make one

Thanks
Laurent
Not a lot of help coming from this thread !!
You all users of this devices are all dead or what? No one has this camera with a 270mm lens, I can not believe it !! Nobody to give me (not sell me) a scan (or better the dxf files) of the cam of 270mm (and even other dimensions) I thought the forums were made to help each other between passionate users .....
Anyway, here is my contribution.
As I wanted to use the 3 sort of back I own :
- Graphic Film Pack Adapter
- Fidelity Elite
- Grafmatic film Holder
So I had to make a back holder common to all 3.
I choose aluminium and wood and "voilą"
The different pieces, I made 3 different piece of wood for 3 different heights of the films holders
For the Fidelity
If someone is interested by the drawing of the holder, I can sell them for $2750 .
hi Laurent -
nicely done. Images of the cams have been posted before. I will see if I can find some copies of them to post. The lensboard should really have a ring on the back as a light trap / centering piece, but it will probably work ok without, but check for light leaks, particularly on the bottom lens.
Calibrating will have to be with shims to one of the lensboard/shutter combinations. The originals had an adjustable board on the viewing lens.
Attached is the custom 270 cam that a friend/user of the TWR had made for his 270 set (I got my TWR from him, though not this cam or those lenses).
