[LargeFormat] Cutting Down 8X10 film

[Jim Hemenway]

I've been using a hole punch on the edge of 11x14 Ektachrome when I have
several sheets which I want to be able to distinguish when they are
returned from the lab.  Works well except that it's a bit awkward trying
to punch half holes in the dark.
