Well, if cutting it up and shooting things outdoors counts, then yes. I've been shooting it in 4x5 and will cut some for 8x10 soon.
A while back, Gustavo gave me a box of kodak digital science xray film. I just developed some more tests with it last week. My results are getting better. Single digit asa. Blue base. It doesn't look like it's good for high contrast, mid day shooting but would work well in controlled situations. I've been using rodinal but pyro may be a better choice for the highlight control. I'll post some results in my gallery when i get a chance.

Thanks Vinny,

Keep us posted on your results...new x ray film in 8 x 10 up to 14 x 17 is quite inexpensive so could merit some experimentation.

I have a bunch of Agfa 14x17, some I have cut down to 8x10.

Appears to have an ASA of about 400, ortho, with a nasty amount of reprocity failure. But I have lots of experimenting to do with it before I really know the stuff.

I have been thinking of making a 14x17 pinhole camera.
