[LargeFormat] Re: 5x7 Press Graflex Film Holders...

[Ole Tjugen]

There were some 13x18cm plate holders with septums on ebay.de recently - I didn't buy them. Maybe nobody else did, either? With the 
metal film adapter septums, I believe 5x7" film can be used in 13x18cm holders. Anyway the two sizes are just as easy to get in Europe - I 
have holders for both.

>>     I am not sure what the story is with the 5x7 Press Graflex. It has a spring back like a Graphic but may not take standard holders. The 
holder you have with the grooves in the sides sounds like a Graflex holder. The metal strip is probaby a spring and makes it a plate holder. 
There were film adaptors available for plate holders but they are as rare as Graflex film holders, probably rarer. However, they can be made 
fairly easily.  When I get home tomorrow morning I will post the address of Alan Broadbent who specializes in repairing and making film 
holders. he may have more information or even holders.
