Panatomic-X questions...

DF, I almost never disagree with your posts. To me the grain in Tmax is completely intolerable and the results are flat. The grain in Panatomic X is invisible and the results are alive. And yes, I've used a bit of each. I'm also the fool that paid $4.50 a roll for the 60 120 rolls on Ebay. When I go traveling I like to leave the big cameras at home sometimes and simply limit myself to the Autocord.

Fool? I don't think so. I had a few bids on it, but had to drop out early due to a leaky wallet. I'm sure it will be well used. I agree with you on Tmax. I haven't really cared for it, having used FX and TX most of the time. I used to use Verichrome Pan quite a bit, was disappointed to see it disappear. I still have two 4x5 film packs of VP on ice, I'll get around to using it one of these days. I'm down to my last few rolls of VP120, missed out on the last bricks of the stuff on ebay.

I didn't think you had a camera that small (Autocord).

... And Kodak still makes Panatomic-X for aerial photography. Only $770 for a 5"x500' roll...but there maybe a 10 roll minimum.

Nowhere do they state what formats they are selling. I suppose if you wanted to spend the money for them to set up for it, they would make it in any size you wanted, even 35mm. Is that right?

I'm always on the lookout for 70mm films. No longer easy to find.

Just the 5"x500 feet and a 9.5" roll also.

bowzart...Do you want a roll of Kodalith Ortho Film 6556 Type 3? 70mm x 100feet?

Expired 1999, but still might be good. PM me.
