Didn't I buy the Korona 7X17 from you? With one OE Korona 7X17 holder.
Can't remember. _______________Yes, I did as I just learned from thread research.
I now have three 7X17 holders.
But the X-Ray does not fit in one or two holders.
At the same time bought 2 'S&S' 7X17 holders I think those are Korona copies off eBay
Which doesn't matter to me as I just slice the X-Ray film to fit, but it's been a while...
I just got them out, they are loaded with film and I don't want to check anything.
I do remember I had this discussion before on this forum.

No, I sold the camera to another person on this forum. The three original holders worked well with the film, as did my S&S holders which were claimed by a friend.
What kind of cutter do you use to slice off small pieces of film? I'm tired of he razor blade.
I think you sold your friend's camera to me and later sold yours to somebody else.
I am often wrong!
I was Randy Moe, but changed my LFPF name for a number of reasons.
I now cut 14X17" Ektascan down with a dedicated Dahle cutter, Never use it for paper, only film.
Dahle 18e VantageŽ Trimmer is affordable and has a very gentle automatic 'holder downer' feature made of flexible rubber/plastic. It also saves fingers.
I have a smaller one for smaller format.
It's not perfect and does sometimes pull a little, but it's far better than my 24" Rota Trim at cutting film.

I bought mine on Amazon some years ago, note the price. https://www.amazon.com/Dahle-Automat...gateway&sr=8-3

Yes,I sold it to you.I didn't recognize the name change.
I won't receive the so-called 5x7 film until next week (it is being shipped from a warehouse in New Hampshire?!?) but I went ahead and bought a few NOS 13x18cm Lisco holders that should allow me to make good use of it if it is indeed larger than standard 5x7 film. I can also use them for cutting down my remaining stock of 8x10 to fit.

I received my 100 sheet box of "5x7" film today, and sure enough it is explicitly marked as 13x18cm on the box.

I've been using the Bill Atkinson / Outback Print color test image for years to dial in color on my printer.
It would be great to have a reference for what green sensitive film can actually see. I don't have any green sensitive x-ray film right now, but maybe someone who does could take a picture of a color test image to compare?
Northlight has a whole page of test images to work from, so I'm sure there's something we could all download in order to compare.
