Great Design

This plate holder is excellent! Very easy to use one handed due to the magnetic back. Easy to clean! The only thing I would say, and this really has nothing to do with the plate holder but for people using an Intrepid 8X10 camera with a 5X7 reducer back, the dark slide can be a bit tough to pinch. I'm speaking only for myself, especially with sausage fingers like mine. So I just simply tied a little string through the dark slide hole at the top, so that I can more easily grab and remove. Again, not an issue at all due to the plate holder but something to keep in mind if using an Intrepid camera. Perhaps when I order another 5X7 plate holder, I can request a slightly longer dark slide modification? Either way, my experience with this company has been outstandingly positive!
