    Film holders - HELP!

    As you may all be painfully aware from my posts on the half plate camera I picked up, I need some half-plate dark slides.

    On 'bay I came across the same seller with these 3 auctions:

    (please dont bid, since I'm not sure which I might need myself!!)

    165x125mm
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWA:IT&ih=001

    345x178mm
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWA:IT&ih=001

    220x150mm
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...MEWA:IT&ih=001

    Of course 345x178mm is too big, but I've no idea what to do about the other two!

    my half plate back says 6.5x4.75inches, which is 16.5x12cm. so does that mean I want the 165x125mm holders???

    I then measured the outside dimensions of the holder I have in front of me - just under 22x15cm!!

    do you think I should be getting the 165x125mm or the 220x150mm holders??


    Argh!

    Ah, no worries I have had a response from the seller and these are the outside dimensions. I've bagged myself 4 of the 220x150mm holders, so lets hope my luck holds out and they fit my camera no problem!
