I'm waiting for my new purchase to arrive, and in the mean time I'd like to get some film holders.

So what is this:

It looks like the Graflok, but the seller says it's the graflex.

I'm hoping for a Graflok, obviously.

Well without being a member os snapfish, I can't look at it and tell you and I am not interested in joining another service, if you want to do a right click and save it, then send me a copy in email I will take a look and see if I can figure it out for you.

The back shown in your picture sure looks like a "Graflok" to me. I don't think even the late-model "Graflex" backs ever had focusing panels equipped with those spring-loaded arms attaching to the center lugs in the back rails.

The focusing hood is also right for a "Graflok" (but seems to be on upside down; one would expect the two vertical clips that hold a darkslide to be at the bottom). However, that kind of hood may have been used on late model backs of other kinds, too.

Yep; that's a Graflok.

Thats a graflok, the hood is installed upside down, the Graflex had a different slider bar.
