    5x7 film holders

    I have just acquired a couple of "5x7" film holders. They are the Fidelity Deluxe with dimensions marked on the holder as 12x16.5cm and 6 1/2 x 4 3/4 (one on each side). Are these the correct film holders for 5x7 films? Or are they for different film formats?

    Thanks.

    Those are half plate holders, not 5x7. The 5x7's will be marked "5x7".

    You'd have to trim the 5x7 sheets to fit.
