these days i am getting more and more love out of c41. more ease of use and exposure, less saturated colors, good detail and grain with the 160 speed. why cant someone make a slow speed, ultra high grain color neg film? i would eat it up.. ektar 100? anyone know how we can special order that in 8x10 and 4x5?

How big are you wanting to print? 160S in 8x10 is simply amazing imho.

Do you have a good formula for C41?

The "best" formula for C-41 would be the Kodak chemistry available almost anywhere. Kodak uses some proprietary ingredients that add that little extra nudge of quality. No published formula will give you the proprietary ingredients used by Fuji or Kodak in their packaged chemistry.

Is there a hugely noticeable difference between tetnal chems vs kodak? Anyone tried processed two of the same negs using the two different chems?
