When five raised dots exist on the tab in which you pull the dark slide, this means that the dark slide is IR opaque. I use some old holders of this sort for my infrared pinhole work and they work just fine. Cheers - george = Handmade Photographic Images http://members.home.net/hmpi/ __ Do You Yahoo!?

Maggie Maggie, you can go to camera shows and ebay and pick up most used double sheet film holders for $5-$25 each...anything in good shape and cheap is the best way to go..i have even used some old wooden ones that were all taped up and they were ok :) Harry http://www.figurefoto.com
Re: [pinhole-discussion] film holder?
Maggie, I would suggest a polaroid film holder (to test your exposure-and for final pics), and if you are going to use sheet film and load it yourself, go with new holders, such as the Lisco brand. They are inexpensive and reliable. You can also go with readyload sheet film, but it costs more. gary gs...@mindspring.com On Mon, 3 Dec 2001 21:21:24 EST, bwphoto4...@aol.com wrote: I am asking for a Zero Image 4 x 5 pinhole camera for Christmas - and I know that I'll need a film holder for it.
