I recently went to Yosemite and tried some Fuji Neopan 4x5 quickload film. I had such a problem with the film coming apart as I removed from my Polaroid 545i holder. My Provia worked ok the Tmax worked ok the Pro 160 worked ok. Every so often the films will have removal problems but the Fuji Neopan was terrible. I tried FOUR TIMES in a row and it would'nt work. Have any of you had any similar problems with both the Neopan or any other quivkload film. Let me kmow.

Fuji recommends using their holder for their film.

There are also various threads here about this problem.

I would highly recommend using the Kodak holder with Kodak films and the Fuji holder with Fuji films.

How often will you get back to Yosemite. It's just not worth chancing.

Also, Robert White (UK) did a test of this and recommends against using Fuji in Kodak and vice versa.
