Hi Folks,

I'm tempted by the idea of the occasional panoramic using 5x4 sheet film. I just don't understand how the half-frame dark slide works - I think I'm being really thick here!! I would want to get two images per sheet.

Here's an example: http://www.chamonixviewcamera.com/ac...es/halfframeds

Does this fit inside the normal "sleeve" of the dark slide? It must do otherwise your film would always be exposed, right?

I've read that Chamonix's only fit inside their own double dark slide. Anyone want to verify? $100 for DDS and 1/2 frame seems a lot for the occasional panoramic!

Cheers

Graham
