Right. And if that doesn't work one can file the edge of the opening to
about a 45 degree angle so that it is beveled away from the film. Use a
small jewelers file, available at any decent hardware store or Radio Shack.
Or petition the manufacturers to provide well executed holders - like full
frame!
