I have a film back that might take this. Its called a graflex 7x5 roll holder, 1922 model and it took Eastman No. 54 film. A little info on this can be found here, http://www.rit.edu/~andpph/tphs-filmnumbers.html It takes rolls 7 inches wide, don't know how long as I only have a take up spool. Some years ago I purchased some 9 inch areographic copy film for a 6 pinhole camera I was working on that used a 12 inch inner tube to wrap the film around. I wonder what would be the best way to cut this down, and what should I use for backing paper. -- Pinhole Blender ch...@pinholeblender.com http://www.pinholeblender.com
