Hi all,

I live in Canada and, on the Henry's site, noticed that they listed a 4x5 film called "Genius GF4 4x5 100sh HC Print Film" for $41.99 CDN. If that's 100 sheets of traditional process b&w, that's a steal if it's coming from Henry's.

Question is, what exactly is it? For example, what does the HC stand for?

Best,
Andre

High contrast. If you go to the Maco website I think they have some info. I wouldn't call it normall B&W. I never got around to using it. Plenty of easier choices in 4x5.

IIRC there are two different versions one seemed like a better choice then the other.

Also Henry's doesn't stock either product. You need to order and wait for it to show up from the distributor. That's the main reason I never got around to it. For similar hassle I could order from J&C or Freestyle in the US and get normal B&W film.

IIRC again -) Freestyle sells the bigger sheets. So you might get some info from thier website to.
