Image size of Quickload?

[Bill_1856]

The image size of a Polaroid 52 print is slightly smaller than a regular 4x5 negative. Is a Quickload negative also smaller, or full size?

No, In fact it's a normal 4x5 sheet glued to a leader and a "follower", put in an envelope with a metal clamp at the bottom of the holder. The Quickload holder exposes the whole sheet, I don't know about using it in a Polaroid 545 holder.

I think it actually exposes more area on the sheet, because it doesn't have the thick "rails" of the cut film holder blocking some of the edges...

Fuji Quickload in a Kodak single sheet holder: 92.5mm x 122mm.

Those dimensions are established by the Kodak holder, not the film.

QuickLoad film in a Fuji QuickLoad holder gives actual image area of 95 mm x 121 mm. However, usable size depends on which film one uses.

Fuji negative sheet films, color and black and white, have a hole in their corners for use with drying hooks. Those holes intrude into the image area. So, depending on exactly where a given packet ends up in the holder, 1.5 mm - 2 mm of the 95 mm width, or 2.5 mm - 3.2 mm of the 121 mm length (whichever way one decides to crop) is lost.

Fuji transparency films have no drying hook holes and allow the full 95 mm x 121 mm to be used. Unless, of course, your lab puts hanger clip marks in the image area.
