Are these the ones you guys are talking about?

They seem, on screen at least, that they hold three film holders comfortably?

I got some funny looks at my local Lakeland shop when I was trying out the different sizes to work out which one I needed.
I've had similar looks in other shops Martin, when I've tried out products for their not intended use over the years. Just just don't ask me to try and remember what, as the brain is foggy other than for scant details.

Yes. That is what I bought. The 5x5 ones will hold 3 film holders each.

I got mine directly from Silvestri in Italy. In the uk they want you to go via linhof studio.

These are made in various sizes for phones, tablets and laptops etc so can be had cheaper and quicker from other ebay sellers - compare the sizes with the ones advertised for tablets. I've not used them but from the photo in the advert, 3 holders looks like an overly tight fit to me.

All of which reminds me, I need to get some wraps for my LF lenses...
