I have a Speed Graphic that I believe is a Pacemaker from '48 (based on other info on this site i.e. Ektar lens serial #). It has a Graflok back and I want to determine the film size/format so that I can set it up for shooting Polaroids.

If I measure the ground glass it is approx. 3x4 but I've also been told that the camera is a 4x5. Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

If the ground glass viewing area measures 3X4, then it must be a 3-1/4X4-1/4 unless someone has masked it off. Fred.
