Hi Jorge,

Sorry to hear about the price per sheet of 12 X 20 sheet film. $17 per sheet of B&W is horribly expensive. I hope you don't make many mistakes at that price. :w00t:

Ouch.. :crazy: I'm sorry to hear that. This crazy, immediate gratification world, keeps gobbling up anything, in this case film, that seeks quality. I'd always saddened, to see this. I always thought I would be able to spend my retirement doing photography, but now all the processes I've loved and cherised are disappering, and I'm not even close to retirement age yet.

Ok, Michael Kadillak arranged for Kodak to sell tmax 400 in 12x20 size, but at $17/sheet I am only going to be able to afford one box instead of two, so I was looking at the alternatives and all these other companies have film in 12x20 size, but with films speeds of 100 or below, one of them even has 12x20 film in 25 ASA. WHat use is this? Did they think anyone using 12x20 is going to enlarge? :pinch:
