bennie_nickolas_hinojos Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 i have a graflex graphic view II camera. I am just barely starting large format so i have many more questions than answers. But i need film holders. From what i see a film holder is a film holder, they are universal to any camera. But i see graflex makes their own so does that mean my camera requires film holders from the same manufacture? Who knows maybe they have a special locking tab that makes me unable to use a toyo, lisco,....etc film holders? Please help before I spend money on holders that might not be work. Thank you all so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianS1664879711 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 <p>Check out <a href="http://www.graflex.org">www.graflex.org</a> which is a web stie dedicated to Graflex cameras. I believe your camera has a graflok back. You can verify by comparing your camera to the descriptions/pictures of the different backs at this site. If you have a spring back or graflok back, any film holder will work.</p> <p><a href="http://www.graflex.org/speed-graphic/features.html#GraflokBack">http://www.graflex.org/speed-graphic/features.html#GraflokBack</a></p> ...

james_wheeler1 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 <p>My Graphic View takes standard film holders, Grafmatics, etc. as my other view and field cameras. Yours should be no different. BTW, Grafmatics are wonderful for those of us who started with roll film cameras and moved to large format cameras. With a little practice, they are easy to load and fast to use.<br> Good luck with the new toy/addiction.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
