What is the actual image size of 4x5 Quickload negatives? Thanks.

that would depend on the holder you put the quickload into.
For a Fuji quickload holder, the image size will be 4.72x3.73 inches.
For a Kodak readyload holder, the image size will be 4.69x3.64 inches
For a Polaroid 545 holder, the image size will be 4.79x3.75 inches.

Don't forget to account for the image area lost by that really usefull hole that Fuji still punches in the image area of the film. Of course, those that scan can clone it out, but I still refer to it as the ass hole.
Jeffrey, how much image is lost?
Wilhelm (Sarasota)
Bill, the hole is 3mm in diameter, and requires a crop of approx. 1/8" on one edge and 3/16" on the adjacent side. Sometimes that's enough to alter your composition and edge to subject placement more than you want. It's so silly.
