What's your most recent sheet film?

I've hoarded so much sheet film over the years, I won't be purchasing any until I've used them up... That includes 120. I think I went nuts during Covid.
 
last week I went camping in central New Mexico. I brought the Technikardan and a bunch of film. Over the course of the week I shot 24 sheets of Fomapan 100, 4 sheets of Rollei Infrared, both are now developed in HC-110. I also shot 4 sheets of Provia 100F and 4 sheets of Adox CMS20. Neither of those are developed yet. The Provia because I don't have the E6 chemicals, and the CMS because I don't want to waste chemicals, so I want to shoot a few more sheets before I mixed up the Adotech.
 
Last week was all about Ektar 100 in 4x5.
Developing some HP5+ in HC-110 this evening.

 


Arista 400, from when it was Ilford HP5+, rangefinder focused Super Graphic, hand held shot last week. Xtol 1:1 8 min at 75deg for a little extra contrast

Although I don't consider 2x3 to be large format, I have a few Grafmatic holders loaded with FP4+, and I usually go with Rodinal semi-stand development 2 hours 1:200

I'm relatively new to 4x5. I've been trying Tmax 100 and 400, Velvia 50, Ektachrome and Provia. I'm staying away from color-negative film.
 
Tried out my Toyo-View 57G with some Fomapan 100 and Tri-X TXP-320. Test shots developed in new-to-me "Spur Silversalt" developer. Silversalt is an online retailer in Japan that sells European photo products like Spur, Foma, Adox, etc. and they worked with Spur to create an "all-purpose" developer. The Fomapan 100 came out great. But on the Tri-X I got what looks like a brown, general stain. Fomapan in picture. Reduced file size to about 1MB for upload.

 
We had some really weird weather this weekend. I shot some expired E100VS, Foma 200, and Provia. What kind of surprised me--one of the sheets of Provia, and one of E100VS were shot with a very old Dagor 6.8/168--it has the Dagor name, and "Dopp Astigmat" on the ring, but no "Serie III". I'm not sure, but I'm guessing the aughts or the teens as a date of manufacture. It is in a compound shutter that looks like it hasn't seen a CLA since new, but well, the chromes were perfectly exposed, one actually looks quite nice, and even through the lesn was a throwaway, it was quite beautiful rendering, depth, and bokeh. It was probably helped that it was morning and rain clouds were rolling over the mountains, and the sun was nowhere to be seen, but I was still surprised that it was as close as it was.
 
sorry--I was the recipient of someone else's decision that it was worthless, I certainly don't believe that.
