35mm Back for Belair X 6-12 Introduced

Lomography has introduced a 35mm back for their Belair X 6-12 medium format camera.

Belair X 6-12 35mm Back open with 35mm film loaded, viewfinder mounted, against a white background showing the film chamber and sprocket

With the back, you can take panoramic photos measuring 104 x 33 mm, also exposing the film perforation (sprockets). On a roll of 35mm film for 36 exposures, this format yields 11-12 images. An image counter on the back shows the current number.

Of course, the normal lenses of the Belair can be used with the back.
Multiple exposures are also no problem, as you decide when to advance the film and the shutter is not linked to the transport.

In principle, any type of 35mm film can be used (eBay / Amazon*), the only limitation is of course the light meter.

The price of the accessory is 59 euros in Lomography's online shop. Whether you want to spend this rather high amount is up to you.

Here are some pictures taken with the new back.
