ILFORD ULF Run : ORTHO FILM IN ROLLS

[Simon R Galley]

Dear All,

We are finalising the product offerings :

We have received requests for ORTHO + film in rolls :

We only wish to make one size

Would 20" x 50' be OK ?

We will also make ORTHO +
10" x 12" 13cm x 18cm 18cm x 24cm 9cm x 12cm

Some pretty quick feedback would help.

Thanks

Simon.

Simon For my purposes 24 inch would be perfect by 50ft or 100ft * preferred*

I will go with 20 inch x 50 if 24 is a PIA

thanks
Bob

This is a really dumb question but I just have to ask.

I get 4x5 and 8x10 in boxes, not rolls. My question is how "hard" is it to get a rolled up film flat, if i cut a sheet of 11x14 from the roll will it stay flat, or wont it even be a issue when i slide the sheet into the film holder.

cheers

I think if you cut soon there would be no issue, as I am sure Ilford is making cut sheets from master rolls.
But if you improperly store the roll for a long time, a curl could happen and then it would be tough to handle.
I find with paper rolls that have long storage the curl is bad.
As well a lot of photographers are buying film on the internet and by the time it gets to rolling on the reels, the curl is sometimes too much to get on the reels.
