Hello all. There was a bunch of messages a while back about 5 inch rollfilm. The camera I'm working on will use it and I've purchased something really unusual and cool. It's a Graflex "53" rollfilm back which uses 5 inch film on long spools for 6 4x5 exposures per roll. It looks very old (20's?), uses red window framing, and looks pretty simple in construction. I'd like to take some pictures and make them avqailable for anyone interested. I plan to use aerial film, so I'll have to block off the red window and count turns. UNLESS, someone knows where paper suitable for rollfilm backing can be obtained. It would have to be thin, opaque, at least 5 inches wide, and not black on one side so we can see the numbering. Any ideas?
