Description
5x7 film holder, which held double sheets of film for use in large format cameras. The holder takes two sheets of film and fits all press and view cameras with the international spring back. 5x7 formats are among the less common used and are sometimes referred to as “ultra large format.” When using a sheet film holder, the device is inserted into the camera, often a view camera, and the dark slide is withdrawn, making the film available for exposure. After the exposure has been made, the dark slide is reinserted into the film holder, and the device is removed from the camera for later processing of the exposed film. Film loading using sheet film holders requires a dark space to load and unload the film; typically a changing bag or darkroom would be utilized to avoid compromising the film. However, 5x7 film holders were known for their primary use in the field, suggesting that a changing bag would have been used. (a)The film holder has been designed with the utmost durability and has a welded unibody construction to withstand normal dropping without damage. The holder consists of a metal handle on the darkslides, which make for easy handling and are considered to be more highly regarded as they are known to have a longer life. On the top of the holder’s body there are two black metal clips, which would have locked each sheet into place. Along the top of the holder, on both the front and back, a protruding inscription reads as follows: “5X7 LISCO CUT FILM HOLDER” “MADE IN U.S.A. BY PATS PENO” “LISCO PRODUCTS CO. GLENDALE 4, CALIF.” (b)At the top of the darkslide nothing has been attached to further identify it. (c)At the top of the darkslide a red, white and blue striped ribbon has been tied
