I’m still working with Jason Lane on the new holders, but it’s looking like setup cost and flexibility of size is pushing us towards acrylic holders rather than moulded ABS. For anyone else waiting for Chroma cameras, the holder assembly is going to be outsourced, so it doesn’t mean taking up camera build time!
I cut the first 8x10 holder yesterday....it’s huge! I won’t get this bonded together until my adhesive arrives on Monday, but I’m happy with the dry fit. Whilst both the 4x5 and 8x10 holders I’ve cut (and the 5x7 I’ve got drawn up) are designed for glass plates, they can also be used for sheet film with simple slot in spacer plates so they’re multi-use.
I’ve also just finished/shipped the blue Chroma, now onto another green one :0)
