How to make a DIY Bi Post to Hot Shoe Flash Adapter Then Shoot Ektachrome!

I wanted to use my Godox AD200 with a 1952 Busch Pressman Model D 4x5 large format press camera. The problem? My new Wollensak shutter only has a bi-post sync port — no PC socket, no hot shoe. So I built a janky, one-of-a-kind flash adapter using spare parts, wire strippers, a Molex cable, and my grandpa’s soldering gun.

In this video, I mod the camera, test the flash on some expired Foma 400 black and white film, and finally go full large format drama by shooting Ektachrome 4x5 sheets — once cross-processed in C-41, and again with a DIY color reversal process.
