Grafloc back??

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Large format photography : One Thread

I am very new to LF cameras. I just recently purchased a Graphic View 4x5 camera..how do I know if my camera has a graphloc back? I know this may be a stupid question, but I have no clue about these backs. Any help is very appreciated.. Thanks, Kevin

If you can remove the ground glass without using any tools and have 2 slide locks at the side of the film holder area you have a Graflock or International back.

If you don't then you need slip-in film holders for roll film.
