How did you get the nice vignette? Was it just the lens or purposefully done? Or in the print process?Quote:

I found a distributor here in Mexico but I don't know which one should I buy.

All I can say for sure is this version is a single-sided emulsion on a blue-tinted base with an anti-halation layer and a shooting speed somewhere around EI50 - EI100.

Yes, I will be developing it by inspection but I like to home in on EI and development prior to making images which I hope will be more important.
My darkroom is rather fully equipped with several types and colors of safelights so I have no concerns there. There are at least three red ones which have been totally satisfactory with Ilford Ortho as well as some very ancient Tri-X Ortho.
I sent you a PM to which I hope you respond positively.

Yea that's what I have, I've never heard of different versions...Quote:

Interesting, when you order it, does it still give you the options in the drop down?Quote:

I THOUGHT all ektascan was only 100 so not sure the website is correct ? Hmmmm ok who knows more?
Ektascan is not regular X-Ray film at all. It is designed for CRT video screen capture, it is never used for actual X-Ray like the double sided stuff.
I imagine Ektascan will not be around much longer as imaging CRT's is fast becoming even more obsolete than analog X-Ray.
Other companies do make CRT video capture film, but it is difficult to find any good info on it. Somebody needs to buy samples and test it.
I use Ektascan and am very happy with it.
