Re: [Largeformat] Polaroid 545




Okay, I just bought a used Polaroid 545 holder.  (The older, metal 
one.)  It's in great shape, but one thing worries me a bit.  The 
film-holding springs at the top and bottom are not arcs; they're more like 
wavy lines.  To be precise:  they're like one cycle of a sine wave; they 
bow downward, then up.  Is this normal?  If not, is it going to affect film 
flatness?

thanks,

Douglas Cooper
