Hi all, I was curious if anyone here has used this stuff.

I am thinking of maybe getting some larger sheets to use in 120, but I’m not really sure if it would be worth it. There’s a box on eBay that I’m currently eyeing. 100 4.5x10” sheets for around $130 after tax/ship.

It seems to be more expensive than Fuji medical stuff, but it comes in long 70mm rolls which is appealing.

if anyone has any direct experience using this stuff, I would love to know!

The D-number tells you the speed/grain of the film, I know that. It is also very high contrast.

Of all the Structurix D-numbers, D6W is the one you want. D4W is the next easiest to work with. These have the closest to pictoral contrast with reasonable development, and D4 is roughly 100 ISO speed.

D numbers - ISO speeds:

D2 ISO 32
D3 ISO 64
D4 ISO 100
D5 ISO 200
D6 ISO 200
D7 ISO 320
D8 ISO 400

Yep, D5 and D6 are both ISO C4 class, so both are about 200 ISO speed.

MCB18, I have some AGFA stucturix D3 BLR. 70mm, inbound in the next week or so...want a test strip in exchange for the microfilm?
I have heard that all but D5 is coated on only one side.

Ahh, so you’re the one who bought that! I was mulling over buying that but took too long. I messaged them to see if I can buy another roll from them as it looks like they have more than 1 roll, but if they don’t I’m more than happy to work out a trade.
