Hi!
I'm new to 8x10, but not new to LF. I ordered 3 8x10, no-name holders off of the bay a few weeks ago.... the cheap, dirty holders all work... but the film loading flap at the bottom only opens to 90 degrees! Is this normal for 8x10? all my 4x5 film flaps open to a completely flat 180degrees.
Since the flap doesn't open all the way, I have to bend the film to fit over the flap and under the guide-rails. One my paper negative test shots, the back of the paper got scratched up as it rubbed over the protruding flap... and now I dont want to risk damaging my $x/sheet film like this...
is this normal for 8x10??
