    It is not paranoia -- light is out to get us! That is why I hide under the redwoods. I wish all my equipment was 100% light tight 100% of the time. Pretty close, though...

    Hmm, I always though light was our friend.

    I am likewise - but when I am carrying a film holder to and from the camera, I just make sure my body is between the holder and the sun, so that it is shaded. I keep the dark cloth or a black T-shirt over the camera back during exposure. I am to impatient / lazy to test all my old holders...or I enjoy my paranoia...
