I have a Phillips 7x17 camera and I'm getting slightly less enamored with the format (never should have sold that 8x16!!) but I'll give it another fair go before making any iirreversible decisions. For now, I would like to use it to shoot 7x11 film (my new golden distraction) and I was wondering if the 7x11 sheet of film will fit, as far as width goes, unemcunbered into the 7x17 holder. I will put in a stop and over-lip to deal with the length and also mark the GG accordingly. Geeze that's long winded! I guess what I'm asking is: is the 7" side of a 7x11 sheet of film exactly the same width as the 7" side of 7x17 sheet of film? Thanks!
