picked up the horseman 120 rollfilm back with darkslide today -- camera shop said i need some kind of something or other to get it to mount on the back to shoot 120 film ---- also, which back do i get to load up some of the fuji instant films?

can anybody help out with the part to get the 120 back on --- it's not quite big enough and there's nothing to connect it
 
it seems about an inch or so short of height and seems too small to fit....

have removed focusing glass and there's just no way it can seem to fit on
 
That looks like one that was design for the horseman 2x3 folding cameras. Btw I use one on my graflex xlsw since it has the 2x3 universal grafloc back on it.

U need to get a 4x5 roll film back. The other approach is a slide in 4x5 style like the calumet 6x7.

There are versions for 6x6, 6x7, 6x9 all the way up to 6x17 if u want to pay the price.

thanks the parts are cheap -- keh and igorcamera have them --- anyone need this back and want to trade? I'm certain i could throw in a few things for the 4x5 rollfilm back - brand unimportant
 
I would just return it or trade it, and get one designed for use on a 4x5. They are more common and probably even less expensive than the one you have. Horseman, Wista or Linhof are all good.
