Keep on the lookout for 4X5 holders. You can find them in unexpected locations. I picked up 6 Lisco holders for $5 only a couple of blocks from my house at a garage sale. Of course that meant I had to build a 4X5 box camera out of 1/8 inch plywood and mount an old 130mm f7.7 Kodak lens on it salvaged from a unserviceable Autographic. So far I've only loaded paper negatives but I plan to get some film this summer.
I have killer darkroom now that will do up to 4x5 so I might get this to support Ilford who really deserves it! Otherwise, I have 150mm 5.6 Rodagon 4 x 5 enlarging lens in new condition, 4 x 5 neg carrier and half a dozen fidelity film holders sitting around not getting used.
I already have a specific project in mind for this...🙂
