Fuji! FP-100C. Brilliant film.

Adding the pack film back to the Buroni was easy, the 600-series to the 600SE less so. Though not full frame on the Buroni, the results are pretty pleasing... Skj.

Yeah I've been planning to do an integral back for the Universal for a long time. Also looked at the Bronica backs...shame it hits the bottom of the frame!

I thought so too, but leaving Sean-style backward pulled borders kinda negates the white vs. black border. A look I could cope with after the final demise of my Type-665 stock... May be. Skj.

Sweet stuff, Mr Skj. I got hold of a Pola back for my Bronica SQ-A and have used it a fair bit (example below), but never thought to get some instant action with my S2A. Nice indeed!!

The 600-series to 600SE kludge is rather successful - other than the no mirror, everything is reversed effect:

Do they come from a Mamiya RB67? Are the mamiyas RB67, RZ67 the cameras that can get the biggest image from a Polaroid back? without of course the 600se and 110, 120..  The results from Pentax 67 pola back look disappointing as they are pretty small, and I woud say the same for the hassys... but I might be wrong..  8)

Normal, the Hassy is only 6x6 cm. The mighty Pentax 67 has a rectangular mirror (no rotating back), hence a 6x7 cm image. On the other hand, the Mamiyas  have a square mirror and rotating back so they can make a 7x7 cm image.
