Default Bronica SQA Polaroid Back.

Does anybody know if any Film is made for a Bronica SQA Polaroid Back?
If it is completely redundant, I am thinking of taking some tools to it and adapting the back to take Rollei TLR sheet film holders that fit my old Rolleicord Va. I have about half a dozen Rollei dark slides.
Might as well utilise the back as just leave it in its box gathering dust.
I put an ohm meter across the contacts of an SQA 120 film back and read the various resistances for the different ASA settings.
So with a multiway switch and a hand full of resistors I could have a sheet film back that will operate in conjunction with the metering prism head.
I mainly want to do it to experiment with the Zone System.
Cheers.

Sadly there is no film available for this Polaroid back, nor any other medium format camera so far as I know . A few years ago you would have used Fuji FP100C pack film, now discontinued. It's disappointing this format has been ignored when the square polaroid film has been resurrected.

If you eliminate the impossible whatever remains no matter how improbable must be the truth.
