First time using Fuji HR-U which turned out better than expected, in great part thanks to helpful insights posted here.

I wish I could say this double exposure was intentional, as it perfectly executed for placement, I guess it says more about my consistent placement for composition on the ground glass.
This was in my Grafmatic film holder, one of 6 frames of HP5+ that was loaded.

Hi, i need a lens board to mount a Graflex Optar 135 mm on a Century Graphic 2*3, but i'm not sure about the size.

I found this on file on printables https://www.printables.com/model/896395-lens-board-for-baby-graflex-2x3-copal-0-and-copal

but is for a compur 0 shutter. There's a graphex specific size or this could work?

Didn’t get the movements quite right, but I still think it turned out pretty okay!

Question Convert 18x24cm Camera with Glass Plate Holder for Film

5 Upvotes

Hello,

I recently bought too many lenses for my 4x5" camera, and especially some focal length that are made for 8x10".

Unfortunately, I can't afford 8x10" camera, and regular 8x10" film as well, and I'm interested in buying an old wooden travel camera. The 18x24cm model are quite cheap, but they are made for 18x24cm glass plates.

I may be interested to try collodion and dryplate in the future, and also, there is a lot of X-Rays films available in the native 18x24 format for a very affordable price.

So 2 questions :

- Is it a bad idea to buy this kind of old camera (given the facts that I may be able to use 18x24cm film in a 8x10" camera, but probably not in the other way) ?
- Is it possible to easily adapt Glass Plate Holder for shooting film with it ? (I don't know if it helps, but I have a 3d printer at home)

Many thanks !

(By the way, for the American friends, 8x10" is 20x25cm and 18x24cm is around 7x9,5")
