Do I understand it correctly that the first two of the group of 3 adapters you presented at the end of the video are reproductions of the originals from Mamiya so if I have the Mamiya Press and the RB67 I simply can take the adapers from there and put them onto the Miniportrait? Without any adaptation? Which adapters are these? G and M?

How framing your shot with this back? Are the framelines still accurate or do you need to compensate?
@lofianddiy2 ай бұрын
Since there is a slight offset of down and to the left mechanically due to the roller cage, you would compensate by framing slightly up and to the right. It takes a little getting used to, but will eventually feel like second nature!

Hi there LoFi. I've been looking at this and your 600se model for some time. One concern i have, is access to viewfinder, if i'll be able get my eye up close to the window. Having to look through the viewfinder from an inch away doesnt work well for me. Thoughts? Thanks
@lofianddiy5 ай бұрын
Hello- my goal is always three things: Totally non-destructive and reversible, simplicity of install and use, and, having met the prior two parameters, set up for the film plane exactly. Unfortunately this often means an offset to the film, as well as the challenge you described as a distance from the viewfinder. I have found that, despite wearing glasses, I can get used to this. As you mentioned, though, it may not work well for you.
@MrLennart19765 ай бұрын
@@lofianddiy yeah i get that, being an avid collector with over 1500 cameras on display and a 100% analog shooter i also much prefer not to cut up the camera and have nothing but respect for your philosophy. Just trying to figure out how big the viewfinder issue will be for me before buying. I tried clamping my lomograflok to a polaroid 120 and that distance is just too much for me, makes the viewfinder very uncomfortable. Would you say the problem is less on your 600se build than the 110? I have most polaroid models on hand so trying to decide wich conversion will fit me best.
@lofianddiy5 ай бұрын
@@MrLennart1976 The 600se instax wide back has less of this problem, as the viewfinder actually sticks out toward you and over the instant back. My 110 instax wide conversion ends up pretty much like when you hold your lomograflok to the back of your 120.

This is awesome to see - I love your hacks and your kits, you seem really passionate about this stuff. I, like others in this comment section, have a pack film system I am looking to revive. I shoot on a Gx680, with Fuji Instant Back II. Obviously every system incurs new challenges, but seeing as you have more experience with this, I wanted to ask what your thoughts on this are! Perhaps cannibalizing a Instant back for the mount/film plane and then somehow attaching the Lomograflok to that! Hmm. As per usual keep up the good work!

Hi Aaron! Super glad you made an adapter for this camera, I'm excited to try it out!!! I had a few questions: what's the purpose of the lens stop? Does it limit the full focusing range of the bellows at all? Additionally: how much extra or cutoff image is in the viewfinder compared to the final image, if using the Lomograflok? And last question, is it difficult to look through the viewfinder with the thickness of the adapter + Lomograflok? Thanks for your time 😁
