<p>I just did a quick search for 4x5 Xray film and didn't come up with anything....and I'd very much like to give this film a shot after seeing <a href="/photodb/user?user_id=6955382">Michael Darnton</a> fantastic portraits.<br> My question is, should I buy the 8x10 and cut it in half? It seems to be readily available. </p>

<p>Thanks...I found an old one hiding in the oddest place. In a folder marked "CONTRACTS". </p>

<p>HI...I'm searching for a "product work order" form. I have a table top shoot coming up soon and the client requested a work order. It's been years since I wrote one up, and would like to have one that lets me fill in the blanks, so to speak.<br />Any help will be greatly appreciated and I thank you in advance.<br> --Von</p>

<p>Roger...I'll use 120 roll film and a cigar cutter, cutting the film to fit the 127 spool. I also have, for the first time ever, plastic developing spools for the processing. </p>

<p>This camera does indeed have the sports finder. I'll do as you suggest and check the shutter timing first thing tomorrow. I'm thinking I'll take the camera in for a general cleaning because I do plan on using the "baby" instead of lugging my RZ 6x7 around when I want to shoot film on locations.</p>

<p>Charles...thank you sir for taking the time to help me out with my shutter problem. David (above) had the solution and everything seems to be functioning well.</p>

<p>Holy macaroni and cheese! I read you response...picked up my camera, which just so happens to be sitting next to me, opened the viewfinder, pushed the shutter release and a smile appeared on my face.<br> I do hope that the individual that came up with the design of this baby had years and years of chuckles...<br> Thanks very much David for sharing this valuable information. Time to start running a few rolls of fill through the camera. </p>

<p>Hi...I've recently turned 57 years old and my very thoughtful girlfriend gave me a baby gray rolleiflex from 1957 she picked up from Ebay. Ya gotta love a gal that buys you a new toy from the same year you were born.<br /> The camera looks to be so new/unused, I can't tell if any film has ever been ran through it...so that tells me it may have been sitting in a closet for a few decades.<br /> So here's the thing...I can't get the shutter to release/depress no matter what I try and the info on the net isn't helping, so I thought I'd ask the experts here. Is it possible to dry fire the "baby" to see if the shutter works or is it quite possibly frozen?<br /> Thank you in advance for any help with this baby.</p><div></div>
