Hello CJ,

The Graflex Gramatic six shot film holder is an excellent device for large
format infrared photography as the holder is of metal construction and the
darkslide is made from aluminium alloy. The Grafmatic holds six sheets of
film in six "septums" which are loaded individually.The darkslide remains
seated in the holder by design when taking a photograph.

I have added a small section on IR 4x5 photography in the new IRFAQ
