Printfile, the parent company of Clearfile, is manufacturing a super negative contact printing frame which is 20% less than the Paterson.


It has been designed to make contact prints through any Clearfile, Kenro or Paterson negative storage sheet. With its extra-heavy optical glass you get perfect pressure which ensures direct contact prints from any 8 x 10 or 9.5 x 12 inch paper.


The other bonus is that the design does not have rails meaning that the proofer is equally suited for work with 35mm or 120 format negatives.

Carter ★★★★★

Finally got a contact proofer that doesn't break the bank. The frame holds my negatives flat and snug, making test strips a breeze.

William G. ★★★★★

The 20% lower price compared to the Paterson model was what caught my eye, but the frame holds my test strips perfectly flat for even contact. It's a solid, functional tool for making quick contact sheets without any fuss.

Jason K. ★★★★☆

The price is what sold me—20% less than similar frames I’ve priced out—and the build handles my 8x10 negatives without any fuss. Glass sits flat and true, so contact prints come out sharp. Only gripe is the frame’s a bit light, but for the cost, I can’t complain.
