Want to Buy WTB: 4x5 holders

[Myxine]

Hi all,

I'm preparing for my annual winter trip to 4 corners and I need more holders than I already have. That is 4x5 holders.
I'm looking for "mint condition" holders, brand Toyo, Fidelity Elite.

Let me know

Have you considered Grafmatic 45s? They hold six film sheets.

Catlabs of JP have a load of SH film holders.

Sirius: Thank you. I don't know Grafmatic holders, I will have to check them out.

Morgan: thanks, I will look there too.

I have at least a pair of new-in-box fidelity I could offer.

I'm surprised. They sell for about $75 or so, but hold 6 sheets in individual septums and allow you to shoot and change film with a simple pull-push action. The downside is they make the zone system harder because it is darn near impossible to keep track of individual septums in the stack. They were a favorite of news photographers.

Graflex.org will fill you in.

For some reason, I had never looked into those multiple-sheets holders. I will. It is true that I use the zone system and that i would make things a bit harder, but I guess one could dedicate one holder like this to N-1 development (for example), which is the dev I use most of the time

Thanks for the advice and the answers ya'll. I'm still interested in regular holders for now.

Found 10 holders on eBay at a reasonable price. Now to convince the wife she needs to help me carry some

Thanks a lot mates.
