1-10. Up to this point we have talked about and identified the various parts of
the 4x5-inch view camera and their functions. Now let's discuss how to prepare
your cut-film holder and film pack adapter. Both are 4x5-inches in size.
a. Load the cut-film holders preferably in a photographic darkroom. Any
room or space which completely blocks out all light may be used. Panchromatic
film must be handled in total darkness.
Other films may be handled in a
darkroom
equipped
with
a recommended
safelight
(follow
manufacturer's
instructions).
b. We will talk you through step by step on how to load your film. Study
fig 1-30 first, then read on and you will be able to load your film correctly.
REMEMBER, it MUST be done in TOTAL DARKNESS.
