P3D Regarding Mounts



I love heat seals. Wish they were available in more formats. I find the
tabs to be no hindrance in adjusting the window. Just let the film chip
overlap the tabs and smash down with the iron. The tabs also make the
vertical alignment a snap. I often guesstimate the window, mount one
chip, adjust the other chip while looking through a lorgnette, and seal
in place. Plus the green glue inside helps block light through a viewer.
Someone please make 7p heat seals. I have been using Spicer mounts but
they are tedious and I can never find 1/2" clear tape to seal. I have
been using Elmers sparingly. And the silver tape shows though. I have
also been mounting Med. format 6x6 and panoramic (I love my twin Horizon
202's even though they are cumbersome and slow (tripod a must)). The
silver tape really shows on the panoramics since the tape is right in
your line of sight. MF mounts need to have a dark inner layer. Or I
wouldn't mind grey or black outside. No worry of projection heat
(unfortunately).
