I've seen threads here about how there's no more plus-x, but I just bought some 120 plus-x. Is it that there's no more sheet plus-x?
It's hard to keep up with which film is still available in what format. Is there a page on this site that lists it all out? If not, there should be one....
Can't speak for roll, but there for sure is NO MORE sheet film Plus-X gone, gone.
Yes, it's the sheet film that's gone; Plus-X roll film is still available.
With the move to a new coating facility a few years ago, the Kodak B&W film line was cut back to a core which has been stable for a while now. Off the top of my head, it's just PX, TX, TMX, TMY and TMZ in 35mm; PXP, TX, TXP, TMX and TMY in 120; and TXP, TMX and TMY in sheet film sizes. I'm not sure about the current status of long-roll film in 35mm and 70mm.
EDIT - I haven't kept track of what's what with Kodak's chromogenic B&W emulsions - I'm sure at least one of them is still available in 35 and possibly 120.

That is thin-base film like the 35mm and 120, not the thick base that normal sheet film is coated on.Quote:

How about FP-4? I hear that's a good film. I plan to give it a try later this year.
Long Live Ilford!
