Description: The Graflex XL was my next choice. It was made in the late 1960's and early 1970s and is technologically a bit out-dated. Dealers handle the camera and normal lens for about $400, and film backs are about $100 each. That's a lot less than a Hassy. I finally bought one, an XLRF (rangefinder), when a collector at a nearby city called and offered me an entire outfit, originally made for the military, for $300. It included the body, lens, film backs, Polaroid and 70mm backs, handle and quick focusing lever. In short, a heck of a deal. I bought it and have been playing with it for several weeks now. Ground-Glass Grid BackXL Graflok BackThe XL has a pleasing layout. The rangefinder/viewfinder are mounted on top and, and the camera uses 6x7cm film holders mounted horizontally on a Graflok back. The Graflok back is actually an adapter which comes off easily, using two locking slides, and allows installation of the Polaroid and 70mm backs directly onto the body of the camera. This makes changing from one format to another fairly easy and was probably done to simplify design of the Polaroid back, which is rather large and would be hard to put into a Graflok Thank you
