i found a thread in which stilagrrl mentions that she converted a graphic film pack adapter to mount a polaroid back to.

i know that no polaroid back "exists" for 2x3 graflexes. however i was able to locate and buy a 2x3 horseman polaroid back. it fits...but the grooves for the graflok tabs sit @1mm further back. forcing me to use a washer behind the graflok tab in order for it to slide down and catch. of course i would rather not do this, as the 6x9 roll film backs i have cannot be locked down tightly because of the modified spacing. i have to remove the washers to use the roll film backs. not to mention i can't just swap out my gg and pop on the horseman. not convenient at all. so....my question is, for the 2x3 graphic pack film adapters, will they fit a 2x3 speed graphic graflok back? if so, are p/n's 1232 and 1234 compatible? are they graflok friendly?

i do use a gg to focus.

**i plan on converting a 2x3 pack film adapter and taking off the polaroid back on the horseman back for this conversion*

fuji fp100c/fp-3000b is what i've been using in the 2x3 horseman.

as for my conversion, i would like to use the graphic film pack adapter for the film plane and then attach a polaroid back to that. i would be gutting the cover of the graphic film pack adapter.
