    Are any of the chromogenic films available in 4x5? Ilford's xp-2 super, a great film, whether for scanning or traditional printing, is limited to 35mm and 120mm.

    I tried Sandy Kings two bath approach written up in the recent copy of View camera. Works like a champ. Tested with Fp-4, and Delta. I found the times a little short (5+5 worked for me) but very long scale very scannable negatives.

    T-Max testing is up next.

    yes I miss T400CN in 4x5 sheets... such a lovely film... pity there is no replacement or alternative available.
