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.
 
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 :smile:

Thanks a lot mates.
