Hello, I recently acquired a Linhof super technica 2 x 3. I have spent hours trying to figure out how to remove the back to change film holders. I can’t believe something can be so complicated. If anybody has an answer to this, please be very specific in explaining how it is done. I would greatly appreciate it so I can get on Using this camera. Thank you so much.

It should be a simple 90 degree turn of the release lever in the corner. Link to a video, by Linhof Studio, UK, of the Linhof Super technika 69 (2x3 if American) is below.

That will work on later models (v4 and later I believe.) If you have an earlier model, you start by rotating the back 45 degrees. That will expose a sliding plate on all four exposed corners. Slide each plate away from the center, and the back should come off easily. Later models replaced it with the lever Duff mentions.
