Negative insert (septum) 18x24 cm

Many photographers working in large format photography, especially with older-generation cameras, face the problem of unavailable or damaged film holders. Even holders marketed as “ideal for wet collodion” are often incomplete and lack the metal frame responsible for the correct and stable positioning of the negative inside the holder.

These components are among the most vulnerable to damage, yet they are practically unavailable on the second-hand market, forcing photographers to rely on makeshift solutions that negatively affect consistency and image quality.

Applications

• large format photography 18×24 cm
• classic film holders
• studio and field cameras of older generations
• reconstruction and repair of photographic holders

Why this product

The metal inserts offered are brand new and designed for precise negative positioning within the film holder. They ensure stability, repeatability, and correct geometry of the light-sensitive material during exposure.

They are compatible with most traditional large format holders, both Western-made and cameras originating from the former Eastern Bloc, such as Globica, Mentor, or FKP.
