excellent---yes--you are right about sliding film---difficult and finicky--particulary with larger sizes--plus your method reduces the chances of sliding scratches for sure....good work great ideas....more for the back of my head--always looking to improve, you know?

Tim, innovative idea on the holder. Way to go! I must say that 8x10 and now 11x14 are so easy to handle after setting up the 14x17 a few times. Once you set up a big ULF camera a few times in a row it does get easier. My 8x10 feels like my 645. Light and fast to set up!

Thanks Jim,

I am coming to grips with the size of my 11x14, but I cant imagine what its like to pack your big rig around.
