I asked here about a month back if an RB67 back would work on a Graflex Century Graphic, and was told it would. So I bought one from ebay. It fits perfectly!
I pondered for a while how to set the film counter, since I am accustomed to the singer backs I use on my Century Graphic that require manually setting the counter after loading the film to the start mark. Then it dawned on me. Maybe there is a little magical guy in there like my rolleiflex, pentacon 6 and yashica, and once you advance the film to the start mark and close the back, the little guy inside resets the film counter, and away you go.
Darned if that isn't what happened.
I'm going to keep watching for RB67 backs. I won this one for $40. Compared to the singer, it's built like a tank.
Thanks folks.
