I'm selling two 100ft rolls of Kodak 70mm film.
First is a roll of Plus-X Aerographic 2402 film. I bought a bunch of this out of India, and all rolls I have are from the same lot. At this point I'm only selling one roll, although could MAYBE be talked out of two. All the film I have carries a 2/2006 expiration date(10/2003 manufacture date).
Plus-X Aero is nominally rated at ASA 200 in a high contrast aero developer, and has extended red sensitivity so can function as a pseudo-IR film(in the same vein as Agfa Aviphot/Rollei IR). For pictoral contrast, I've had great results exposing this film at EI 100 and developing in D76 1:1(happy to supply sample photos as well as developing information on request). This film seems to have been well stored and has minimal base fog.
This film has Type II perfs, so is ready to use in most unmodified 70mm backs.
Note that although this film comes in a "normal" Kodak 70mm can(about 4" in diameter), when you open the can you will find the film in a bag tightly wound with no spool or core. The Mercury bulk loader has an adapter for just such film, but be aware of it before opening(it was a surprise to me when I opened it).
Asking $130 inc. shipping in the US. This is less than most of the sellers in India are asking for a roll now, plus you don't have to pay a fortune for shipping or wait 2 months for it to get here like I did!
Second is a roll of Portra 160NC, bought from a studio that had cold stored it.
This has a 3/2010 expiration date, which probably places it close to the end of Kodak 70mm film production.
Note that this is unperforated film, so check if your camera can use this or be modified to use it before buying. Hasselblad A70 backs will require replacement of the sprocket wheel with a rubber roller, which is readily available from a few different souces.
I have not tested any film from this lot.
$260 inc. US SHIPPING
