    Re: 13x18 film holder in 5x7 camera?

    Hi Kim,
    They fit, but to be on the safe side you would also need 13x18 film ( ADOX and FomaPan comes to mind, the others are scarce )

    Regards, Stefan

    Managed the first two shots today with the Travelwide, but forgot to stop down the lens, so I shot the Angulon wide open :D. Actually, that leads me to my only problem with this setup : I am having a...
