	Some of the old wood ones, maybe.  Look at the top of the dark slide on
the film holder, specifically tha part you grab and pull out.
	There will be a series of 4 or 5 raised "dots".   Any holder with 5 dots
is suppossed to be IR safe, those with 4, not IR safe.   All new holders I
have bought are 5 dots.
