The neatest thing I ever saw (and I really regret not buying one) was the
Galvin 6x9 view. It used a "bail" type lever and a set of really long
springs on the ground glass back. When you pulled the bail you could lift
away the focusing panel assembly far enough (almost 3 inches!) to insert a
RH-10 roll film back without removing the focus assembly.
Horseman rotary backs make a lot of sense, too, and fast to use--you just
rotate the back 180 degrees to engage the roll film back and then rotate
again to re-engage the ground glass.
