a 67II. I bought the back used and it came with a hinge pin that raplaces
the hinge on the 67's. It works just like the pins on 35mm bodies.

Hi,
The focal length appears to be somewhere in the 75-135mm range
(assuming it's shot on 35mm). It is not a very wide aperture because
the depth of field keeps quite a lot of the head in reasonably sharp
focus. For a 35mm camera using a 100mm lens I'd guess it was about f/5.6.

It's difficult to answer because we don't know the focal length or the film

afaik the thickness of the sheet in which the hole is matters. You will get
more vignetting at wider view with thick sheet than with very thin sheet.
Also, the elipticall hole (as seen from the side) will cause less
