I miss fuji acros 4x5 quickloads. Does anyone know where I can get some I have tried everywhere?
 
OOPS--I almost forgot PANATOMIC-X I learned to shoot on this , probably shot 5-6 rolls a week in the late 60's ASA 32 and very forgiving.

Mmmmm Panatomic 32, It was the shiznitz, super fine and creamy negs.
sadly only a couple more rolls in the freezer.
 
Wow!

Thirteen pages of the films people miss and not one single mention of the most remarkable and versatile special purpose continuous tone B&W film Kodak ever made: Professional Copy Film Type 4125.

My very first magazine article was about my discovery of the potential of this film for general photography requiring normal to drastically increased contrast. I guess I am not as good a writer as I would like to think if no one remembers or misses this extraordinary film. PCF produced astounding results unobtainable with any other emulsion ever made by any manufacturer.

On another topic: For those who miss Verichrome Pan, it is my understanding that VP was simply amateur Plus-X without a retouching surface.
 
Agfa APX 100. Never tried APX 25, but I know that it was beloved by many. (There is actually lots of APX 100 still out there in 35mm, I shot it mostly in 120.)
Also, I am sad that I never got to try Verichrome Pan.
I wish I could find where it is located in the US... I ordered 15 rolls of 35mm last week from a shop in NY but the film was expired. I am not concerned about that but that is all I have been able to find.
 
Neopan 100 Acros Quickload. With the Quickloads went pretty much my only reason for using this film in the first place. Maybe I can still get them sent in from Japan, but I am not sure if it is worth it.
