B/W transparency film

[Sunstar10]

Hi, Can anyone please tell me where I can buy B/W transparency film and where I can get it processed? I live in the UK so it would need to be British based info. I hope somebody can help.

In hope

I think Foma makes a B&W reversal film, however any B&W negative film with a clear base can be processed as reversal film. I don't know where you would get it processed in the UK, here in the US we have DR5. Ilford has a recipe on their web site for processing B&W negative film as reversal film.

Here's some info from Ilford that I ran into just yesterday...

You can get Foma black and white reversal film from Silverprint http://silverprint.co.uk but you might have to process it yourself using the foma processing kit, also available from silverprint, I believe it is also available from A.G. Photographic http://ag-photographic.co.uk You may be able to get it processed at Palm Labs, the can't remember the web address but the AG site has it, but I cannot promise that they will,

Most all B&W film can be processed as B&W transparency (positive) file. See www.dr5.com

I live in the UK and have been using dr5 for years - brilliant processing and service. See my APUG gallery.

I send batches over several times a year as it is more economical for postage that way. I mostly use Delta 100, but have tried many films in dr5 over the years. Feel free to PM for more info.

Hi, Many thanks for your replies and advice. I'll give Foma a whirl and see what happens.
