Weird. Even now that you have shown me that auction I can't make it come up in a search! kodak 70mm kodak 2405 aerographic none of those terms produce this in the resulting list of items. No wonder I didn't know it was there. Stupid ebay. [On edit: oh it looks like it's because he won't ship it outside of Canada, so ebay doesn't bother showing it to me here in the US in searches, though of course with the actual auction number I can see it. ]

(That's 70mm double-perforated Double-X for those keeping score. The auction doesn't use the term Double X but you can read it on the label.)

Apparently he'll ship to the U.S., but you have to contact him for the freight costs.

Has anyone ever developed this 2405 double x without using the special developer it seems to need?

XX does NOT need special developers whatsoever.

I suppose if the film is used for aerial recon then the goal might be to develop it to very high contrast. But for ordinary pictorial uses, I use common developers on the aerial films- ID11/D76, xtol and wd2d+ and such, and they all work perfectly.

Simon did you guys ever make any 70mm film ? I bought several boxes of your film in 2 1/4 x 31/4 sheet film this year but did not see 70mm listed or I would have bought some.
