Hi!
Is there any manufacturer still producing quarter plate (3.25x4.25 in) film? Adox had it in its catalog until a couple of weeks ago, but then it disappeared. They now have a thing called "quarter plate" which is actually not (2.25x3.25, which I ended buying, should have double checked! grr...), and I'm looking for alternatives before buying 4x5 and framing it down.
Thanks!
Rodolfo

Ilford cuts FP4 Plus and HP5 Plus in quarter plate. But if you want small quantities, you need to order during the annual special order period, which has already closed for this year.
