A friend gave me some boxes of this paper and I will use in a 4x5 camera.
Any experience and recommendations using this paper?
How to load it? Is there a slot in one border?
Thanks for your time.

Thanks for your time.
You can load it under a red safe light. You'll be able to see and feel the emulsion side easily. There isn't a notch. It's similar to the paper you use for printing, but produces a positive image rather than a negative.
Lots of images and discussions of use here: https://www.largeformatphotography.i...sitive-Images/
The size of the paper sheet is exactly 4x5 inches and it is not possible to load in the 4x5 holder. I do not know if this is normal for this paper and the size of the 4x5 film sheets is smaller...
Thanks for the link
I think this was an issue with early batches of this paper, which has since been corrected by the manufacturer. Perhaps someone else can clarify. I have used the paper myself in Fidelity Elite holders without a problem.

That was my understanding, and the stock I bought fitted in the holders. We don’t know, however, when the material in question was purchased. It sounds like it has come from the early production.

If I remember correctly you will want to rate its EI at something like 3.
