<< I would suggest a polaroid film holder (to test your exposure-and for
final pics), and if you are going to use sheet film and load it yourself, go
with new holders, such as the Lisco brand. They are inexpensive and
reliable. You can also go with readyload sheet film, but it costs more.

I would agree here, a Polaroid holder (545i model) is nice to have, check
E-Bay, or places like B&H photo in NYC, I got mine from them for about 130 $
I think it was, but if you look around , am sure you can find even better
bargains. Dont get one of the older 500 models, they are usable but tricky to
use with the new materials ... As to cut film holders, as I recall, not all
are suited for use with Infra Red film, should at some point you want to
work with that type of materials .Why not get a holder that can handle
anything? You might pay a bit more, but its better than buying two sets of
holders, .Am sure someone else on this list can speak to this issue better
than I . Folks , chime in here please !
