Curious on this one, and sorry if I've missed any answers here prior...

I've got a Speed Graphic, and came into some FP100 black and white instant film. I'd love to use it as I've got an Aero-Ektar lens on the camera.

What back do I need in order to use this film? I know it's not a 545...any help appreciated.
 
You need a 405 Polaroid holder. Do you have a Graflok back or a spring back? IIRC the thicker holders have a rough time going on a spring back. I converted mine to a Graflok.

I've got two I was going to get rid of, but I am not sure how to price them. They seem to have shot up in value on the bay recently. If you came into a lot then it is worth getting a holder. If you only have a pack or two it probably isn't worth it.
 
I've only got 2 packs...so maybe I need to try borrow a 405 holder. Thanks for the information!
 
Dear Colin,

Can you take a photo of the Fuji film in question, I might have a back that will work....
The photos you took of barbershop in downtown Winnipeg are nothing short of Fantastic!!

Used to live in St. James and would go to downtown to get my hair cut...old school.

Keep up the good work in Peg City!
