i have a few light leaks in some of my 4,5 film holders. they occur at =
the base of the holders where the fabric that allows the flap to flip =
has frayed. i thought id just apply another layer of tape but before i =
did it im applying for bright ideas.......what type of tape has suitable =
characteristics?
also, would the tape effect the focal plane if it were too thick by =
pushing the film further from the lens when the taped holder is =
inserted?
