Okay friends,

I have a Polaroid 545 holder that  I have used on an older Cambo monorail
successfully for a while.   Last year I picked up a Speed Graphic-type
Beseler (Type 6?)in great condition, Grafloc back, etc  & have used it with
all types of 4x5 film holders, and negs have been fine.  But when I use the
545 back there is a major light leak blowing away the film.  I have checked
to see if there were any baffles not meshing, or if I am not sliding it in
all of the way,etc.  Can't seem to track it down.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Lloyd
