That was about 2010. Freestyle had an Arista product that was, actually was, PX and TX for....don't start crying....$2 a roll. Everyone knew it was Kodak and the employees knew it. Identical developing times and characteristics. I still have 4 rolls of PX and 1 of TX frozen. I just hate the idea of shooting the last of PX.

Yep, I bought a 100-block of it when it was that price 👀

I bought a few rolls of Pan 100 when Freestyle carried it as house brand. As I understand it was sold in a few markets as a bargain film, I thought it was quite good, not as fine grained as Plus X or PF4, but doable. I think it had an anti halagent layer.

so has anyone firmly identified that the Arista EDU DX 400 should be processed like Kentmere 400 or Ultrafine Extreme 400. I now have one exposed roll of the new stuff and also have a couple of rolls of Kentmere to develop. the DX bar code is different on the EDU DX film, and the last digit is a 6 when a 36 exp roll normally would end with a 4.

A good chunk of the dev times for EDU DX 400 match up with Kentmere 400, so go off Kentmere 400 times.

Great, I often put several rolls in one tank, and I guess it is OK to mix this with K-400 in one batch.
