John, I have put paper in my 8x10 film holders and used it to test my camera as I built it. Could you design something on the back of your camera to hold the neg holder. It does not have to be fancy, just enough to hold it while exposing the paper. The dark slide will protect the paper other times. Take a look at my camera for ideas, http://www.philsan.com/8x10.htm
