I got some more ISO 25 in 4x5 sheet and 120 from Freestyle today. I did note that the prices were higher.

Hmm. I ordered a couple boxes of CHS 50 and a couple of CHS 25 on September 3rd after reading this thread on APUG. They are happily in my freezer ready for a project I've been planning. I paid the same price that is on the freestyle website right now. ( Now I'm worrying if 200 sheets will be enough... it's hard not to worry when you know it will be gone forever ! I'm going to need some other relatively slow 4x5 sheets to do some testing before I start using it... any suggestions greatly appreciated. I'll be cutting it down to 3x5. )

When a film disappears for good I doubt you can ever have enough put away to be comfortable. In addition to shooting couple of upcoming historical photo projects I have in mind, I am also intending to use what I have stockpiled to help me find another film/developer/paper combination that gives me the same look I have grown to like. It should be possible but it will take a bit of playing around.

I feel good about what I ended up with, 250 4x5 sheets and 100 120 rolls of IR820, 200 120 rolls of R25, all at the old prices. I did my part to get it out of the hands of eBay speculators...

I am mostly a 35 kind of photog, but would it make sense to buy some X-ray film? I have used a little of it and it sure is slow, it might be similar to Efke but not exact, as X-ray is ortho and Efke is pan-ortho film???

I know next to nothing about x-ray film but that sounds like a good idea. I seem to remember reading you can develop in under a red safelight like true ortho film. Sounds like fun, actually! ... off to waste hours reading APUG on x-ray film!!

I use 8x10 xray quite a bit. I've been quite happy with it for my carbon transfer work. It scratches easily (especially those that have emulsion on both sides), so special care must be given. There is a great thread over at the LF forum.
