Ok, I know about freestyle, etc. I'm looking for the cheapest source of film that there is. I don't care if the film is made in China. I'm not talking about litho film though, I mean actual panochromaic sheet film.

So, do you know of any really obscure brands that I can get cheap?

I've heard of Shanghai film, where can I buy that?

X-ray film. 2 speeds (slow & fast) and either blue or green sensitive. Kodak & Fuji. $26/100 8x10 sheets. Go to the Large Format Photography Forum for discussion and samples.

Otherwise, price Arista.EDU Ultra (Foma) and Efke at Freestyle.

Photowarehouse doesn't seem to have any 8x10 film.

Where can I buy Shanghai films? They seem like they would be an inexpensive option, but I can't find any.

I think what Janian is trying to say is CALL THEM AND ASK TO BE PUT ON THE LIST. They don't have it listed on their site.

I just spoke to them, and they don't have any plans to offer sheet film in sizes other than 4x5.
