I made a 3d printed Instax wide adapter for my 4x5 camera.

I document the construction of my first Instax wide adapter prototype for 4x5 large format camera.

Wow. I'd have no hesitation with printing your current prototype and giving it a try. It seems you've come up with a unique solution to the problem of needing so much depth to the adapter, that the focus plane doesn't work with adapting to vintage cameras. Post those files! My printer is ready and willing.

It's exactly what I wanted! I sold my Lomograflock because of the spacers... I waiting for a update!

Lovely! I'm thinking in design a InstaxMini adapter for an old medium format, but looks hard. Nice video. Waiting for the continuation:)

Love your work I'm converting older cameras as well for 600 film

[@JoshuaRappeneker]

Brilliant! I've just been looking into doing this myself-this is really helpful :)

That's amazing, 🎉

Have you considered using an Instax Link Wide printer for the ejection base? It’s much thinner than the LomoGraflok back (and the Instax Wide cameras it’s based on). It has an LED strip that I think exposes the film as it passes through, right before it reaches the rollers. I keep wondering if you could remove one side of the entire housing, so that it can be attached to a frame that’s open to the lens side, and exposed in the traditional way, but then ejected using the Link Wide mechanism?

You really make incredible camera things !

[@pewpewwee521]

Wow the use of pin to push out the Instax from cartilage is very neat idea!

[@MattOsborne-MrLeicaCom]

Great work. If you successfully make one in the future I would be interested (and happy to promote.. I’m a RUclipsr ..and have the Lomo back) I’ll share my DIY methods in a video soon but they are very basic compared to yours!
