Hi Malin,
 These paper sizes readily available in uk, don't Kentmare paper do both
there site www.kentmare.co.uk also Barclay paper.
You could also try the photographic suppliers Silverprint
http:/www.silverprint.co.uk
Now to confuse you more 5"x7" would be the best format to use in my opinion.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [pinhole-discussion] Standard photographic paper sizes?

Hi all pinholers (or is it pinheads?)!
Anyone going down to the photo store?

Making a pinhole camera and need to know which the standard size
paper is in the UK and the US (the postcard sizes).

I was wondering if any of these sizes of black and white photographic
printing paper are readily available in the US and the UK:

3 1/2 inches by 5 inches (8,9 x 12,7 cm) or
4 1/8 x 5 7/8 inches (10,5 x 14,8 cm).

If these are NOT standard sizes, then what would they be? Someone
suggested 5x7 is the standard in Canada, is it the same in the US?

A little confused!
Malin
