11x14 Fildelity Holder (or ANSI Standard) Dimensions?

[alec4444]

Hi guys,

Trying to identify whether or not a filmholder is going to fit my ANSI standard camera. If anyone out there in TV land has an 11x14 Fidelity Filmholder or other make (for a camera that uses that filmholder) can you please measure the outside dimensions (LxW) & thickness (H) with the darkslide removed? My guess is that the handle for the darkslide could fluctuate, so this would be the only accurate way to measure it.....

Thanks!

Note that there's an error in the information Oren linked to. Both the drawing and second row table heading say: "Depth to film surface." Those should both be corrected to read: "Depth to septum."

THANK YOU, Oren, hugely helpful! Sad I couldn't find that on the web myself...kept getting posts like this one...but without the useful URL you just posted... =)

Sal, thanks for the correction.

Haven't heard back from my large format consultant ....perhaps you guys would know this... Are the 11x14 film holders from a B&J repro camera interchangeable with the Fidelity ones? (i.e. Built to the ANSI standard Oren provided?)

Thanks!

Probably, though I could not swear to it. 11X14 has been an ANSI size for a very long time.
