[LargeFormat] large linhof darkslides

[tripspud]

HI Ole!

       Generally, in the US, 5X7 holders are considerable less expensive than
4x5.  I really like the format.  Big enough for finished contact prints.  Biggest
of the small size large format, so to speak!

       I've bought all older wooden holders rather than plastic.  I don't like
plastic.  It can create more static electricity than wood and attract dust.

Cheers,
