Title: Re, Ilford Obscura, odd request
Post by: John Robison on July 11, 2018, 10:55:16 PM

Does anyone own one of these? If so, can you do me a favor and measure the inside box dimensions, width and height, to the outside edge of the inner box, in millimeters.
Also the depth to front plate. (probably that would be about the focal length, 87mm)
I've got a crazy idea. But before I spend $80 for one of these I need these measurements to see if my crazy idea is viable.
Thanks.

Hi John
 I take it you mean the 4x5 one.
 I measured my one and it is 101mm high 126mm wide and 83mm deep.
hope this helps anything else let me know

Thank's, yes, that is exactly the information I needed. I'll let the gang know if my idea works out after a few more calculations.
