Hello to all, I am a user of older film cameras and do own one digital 35mm Nikon. The digital I use for color and fast grandchildren. All my black/white is done in 35 or 120 develped in house in a small dry darkroom. I also dabble in older Polaroids that I have added modern packfilm backs.

Welcome,one90guy! Glad to have you aboard! Lots of nice folks here, with a lot of experience with things photographic.
I think you will enjoy your stay. I've been here several years now, and still find it as fresh as when I first joined! Virtually every type of photography is represented, from glass plates to full-frame digital and pinhole cameras to high-tech. I have just made the transition to a DSLR, but my first love is still film, in particular early post-WWII to about 1980 or so.
Don't be shy, and HAVE FUN!
Roy

Hi David! Welcome to the forum, I think you'll like it here! Have you tried adapting some of the Fuji films to the older Polaroids? I believe that some do fit, but I don't know which. I've been looking for a model 185 for a long time, they're sort of hard to find. Anyway, greetings from upstate New York  Doug |

I have grafted to modern pack film backs, one to a Polaroid 110A that I should have kept. And I'm using a Polaroid 150 for my next one. The 110 prices are way to high for me. I do 90% of my cutting with a hacksaw, and clean up the cuts with files. I also have been working on another 150 using a back from a 100 series, a lot cheaper and just a more work. Lots of step by step plans on line.
