    4x5 film in 8x10 Jobo Expert tank?

    Is there any reason I can’t throw 4x5 film in an 8x10 Jobo Expert tank? Do I have to position it in a certain way? The reason I ask, is that I have some N-2 and N+2 film... Just a couple of sheets in both formats. I’d rather do them all (N-2 and N+2 separately of course) in one shot if at all possible... rather than doing the 8x10, then doing the 4x5.

    Anyone ever done this? Any tips?

    Thanks.

    AS long as you don't attempt to double up sheets in a slot there should be no problem. The film wil likely move around in the slot, but w/o damage.
