Andy -

I tried some pre-production film and it had some problems. That said, things may have been resolved when they actually went into the proiduction mode. I still have about 100 sheets of HSI so I have not really looked at them a second time, but know that the time will come when I do.

Cheers -

george

have you tried the Elke IR sheet film yet? It seems to have the same curves (approx) as Kodak.. andy -----Original Message----- From: owner-pinhole-discussion_at_spitbite.org [mailto:owner-pinhole-discussion_at_spitbite.org] On Behalf Of George L Smyth Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2004 8:10 AM To: pinhole-discussion_at_spitbite.org Subject: [pinhole-discussion] Tech Pan to be discontinued (was Re: cold temperature reciprocity) I have a lifetime supply of 35mm but not sheet film. TMX can be called a replacement, but the tonality in the red area is rather different. This is not as much a blow to me as Kodak discontinuing Infrared sheet film, but we can get used to these films going away. All the more reason to get moving more seriously with digital negatives.

I called Kodak's tech support line ((800)242-2424) and confirmed it. Manufacturing of 120 will stop in December 2004, 35mm stops in April 2005 and sheet film stops in June 2005. The recommended replacement is T-Max 100. -- Brian Reynolds | "But in the new approach, as you know, reynolds_at_panix.com | the important thing is to understand http://www.panix.com/~reynolds/ | what you're doing rather than to get NAR# 54438 | the right
