Will a Grafmatic work on a Toyo 45?

Curious if a Grafmatic film holder will fit properly on a Toyo 45

series?<br>

Jamie,

 

I use Grafmatic holders regularly with my Toyo AII field camera. I use it with the grafloc mechanism, since simple sliding under the groundglass may give rise to light leaks when drawing the dark slide before and after the picture is taken.

 

Another tip: take care to shade the holder when you draw the darkslide. Grafmatics are particularly sensitive to sunrays entering and reflecting within the holder. This will lead to overexposing the negative about 1 cm into the picture on one of the short ends of the film.
