How thick is a 4x5 film holder?
A 4x5 film holder is typically around 3/8 inch (or 9.5 mm) thick. This measurement can vary slightly depending on the specific brand and model of the film holder, but most 4x5 film holders fall within this range. It's important to keep the thickness of the film holder in mind when using it with your camera, as it can affect the focus and positioning of your images.
Is 4x5 large or medium format?
4x5 format is considered a large format in photography. Large format cameras use sheet film (usually 4x5 inches or larger), which is loaded into individual film holders one sheet at a time. In contrast, medium format cameras typically use roll film (such as 120 or 220), which is loaded into a spool and can shoot multiple exposures before needing to be reloaded. So, while both 4x5 and medium format cameras produce high-quality images, they differ in their approach to film loading and the size of the film used.
