That Polaroid Glow

[Morca007]

I'd love to use 4x5 fuji instant on my Crown Graphic, but the holders are a bit more than I want to spend right now. Maybe in the future.

Vince, Andreas, I'm happy to see those! Excellent.

Todd and Vince and Palec, thank you very much, same to you!
I hope one day, there will be Type 55 and 665 again...

Hey, that's my camera!

What I do with mine is load paper negatives in the darkroom, cut to about 4"x5" size, they sit on the film gate nicely, then you close up the double doors of the camera back.

I rate my grade 2 paper with an Exposure Index of 12; I'm able to use the lens settings on camera for the exposure, with reference from a handheld light meter, of course. Best of all, you get rangefinder focusing and a pretty good viewfinder.

I've also found that the camera can be reloaded out in the field using a large changing bag.

Joe - thanks for this suggestion: I've been meaning to give paper negs a try so this will be ideal.

Cheers!
