The rounded corner does not effect the image at all. I also cut my film from 8x10 to 4x5 and the rounded corner gets hidden in the film holder rebate. So go ahead and have some fun.

Made some portraits yesterday in my festival tent, just for fun and to demo the "old" camera. Used x-ray film for obvious cost reasons. The tent is a perfect lightbox and even adds a bit of a catchlight in the eyes. Here's one image I made - background is the gridwall and small silver prints I had on display.
Wehman UL 8x10, Schneider 360mm f/5.6 Symmar, Fuji HR-T film shot at 50 and developed in Rodinal 1:100:

I was pleased to find that it is possible to order a single 100 sheet box of 5x7" x ray film from ZZMedical, although it seems only the blue sensitive stuff is available one box at a time. I ordered one box to have a stock of 5x7. I've been cutting down 8x10 sheets of green sensitive to 5x7 for use in my Burke & James 5x7, but it will be nice to have some ready to go in the 5x7 size.

Shipping is almost as much as the film.
I don't think ZZ had this before

Please let us know how it fits and how you like it.

7 X 17 X-Ray film has this problem also.

I'll be mildly annoyed if I have to cut 1.5mm off the film because my hope was to avoid cutting the stuff down in general. Although aren't there metric 13x18cm film holders that have the same external dimensions as "normal" 5x7" holders, such as the ones by Fidelity that I have? Maybe I should buy a few of those if it is oversized.
