Ziplocks for Holders?

[mcjeff65]

I'd love to keep my 4x5 holders in ziplock bags. I've seen this advice all over and seems like a good idea. Question. Where the heck are people finding bags? The recommended quart bags all seem to be about and inch short and the gallon bags are way to big. Suggestions?

quart size freezer bag have always worked for me.

Quart bags will not fit the Riteways with the locking dark slides, though they will fit other types of 4x5 holders.

I use 6x9 anti static bags, which are pretty much perfect for my Riteway holders:

Noob question. Why do people put there holders in plastic bags.
Thanks,

I put mine in gallon freezer bags, but I put multiple holders (usually 5) in each.

Kent, I use them to offer a bit of protection against dust and also to help protect them from accidental darkslide pulls in the bag.

I do the same as Noah, sometimes six per bag/generally five

You go to great lengths to clean holders before loading them (or should) so you want to keep them as clean and dust free as possible. Dust on the outside 'will ' find its way inside with use.

The five in a ziplock then fit nicely in a SAW 200 round ammunition pouch attached to the side of my back pack

Yeah,in always use one gallon ziplocks for multiple 4x5 holders and two gallon bags for 8x10 holders. Can't imagine just tossing them into my dusty camera bags.

I use antistatic ziplocks (not the brand name) found on Ebay. Got a lifetime supply and they hold 2-3 holders.
