Got the filmholders - now where do I get half plate film?

[Magpie]

Hi All,
Picked up my Kodak 2D 5x7 today with 3 holders (all that they had) but also picked up 5 almost new half plate film holders, OK I probably shouldn't have but they looked great, clean nice timber and beautifully made! Besides I have to live up to my name and make at least one spur of the moment purchase each week (or so my kids tell me)

But where do I get film? Checked J&C and cannot find any listing for sheet film in 4&3/4x6&1/2, am I missing something? Or are these destined to go in the bookshelf as great dividers?

Any ideas or suggestions please?

Regards

Brendan

Hello Brendan

I lso use an half plate for part of my work. I use many way to get my film:
- I some time buy 8x10 film that I cut down to the good size.
- Or I also have some roll of aerial Plus X pan to cut
-at last you mayvisit www.mrcad.co.uk who sell maco panchromatic film in different size. Dead Link Removed
here is the link for the 30 sheets pack of 100 asa maco film

best regards

Try the Retro Photographic website.

Dead Link Removed As Roy said. They stock the larger sheet film sizes, as well as roll film.

I misread full plate instead of Half plate, you can also find half plate at Mrcad
