I just won an auction (my first ever!) on E-bay. It was for a Crown Graphic with an Optar lens.
This is a first large format camera for me, so this will be a steep learning curve.
Is there a way to tell what back is on the camera, Graphlok vs. Graphic? Looking at the pictures provided by the seller, there's a viewfinder on the top and a longer one (rangefinder?) on the side.
If it is a Graphic, is it possible to fit a Gaphlok back on? I want to be able to use 120 film and Polaroid too.
Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff, this is a good opportunity to remind folks there is a world of good information on the Graflex.org site if you'll just read it. For instance, your question about Graflok backs is covered in depth under the section "first time users". Even with pics!

Read all you can first. Then ask your questions.
