I am amazed that no one appears to have addressed this question before in the LF Forum archives.

I use wood film holders in 4x5 and 5x7. Why? I like the way they feel and handle.

I saw a passing reference recently that wooden holders hold film flatter. To be honest, I've used both and have never noticed a difference one way or the other.

Thoughts?
