I would like to ask, is there any significant difference between Agfa HDR-C Plus and Fuji UM-MA HC?
They are both single-sided mammography films available to me in the 30x40 format, Fuji is a little more expensive.
Thanks.

In the past 5 years, the Agfa prices for mammography films have increased incrementally, while the Fuji prices have almost tripled…
It used to be that the Fuji was the cheaper choice…
However, I just checked roentgenexpress.de and saw that the UM-MA went 55% up since the beginning of August (this August!)…
In any case, I have used both of them with the RO9 version of Rodinal (though I did use the older HDR version of the Agfa), and they are comparable, both in speed and in achievable gammas.
I did have some issues with pinholes with the HDR, but that was years ago, and it could have more to do with my processing (at the time) rather than the film, but I thought it's worth mentioning…
Also, the blue tint of the base comes out slightly duller/darker with the HDR, but that is not an issue, and it might have more to do with the specific developer…
By the way, I didn't know that it came in 30x40cm.
Would you consider sharing your source?
Thanks a lot for the info. Rodinal is my favorite developer, can I ask what speed you usually work with?
I noticed the increase in prices, I last searched before the summer, I should have ordered then.
ANd sorry, I was confused about the dimensions. I also looked at blue Agfa film in 30x40.
I usually cut large X-Ray down
to any size I want
I once cut a square sheet for Hasselblad
I had the special bits and a tiny Hasselblad film holder
Very sharp neg and print
of course
I buy from eBay...Quote:

I have been "rolling" strips of X-ray film (Fuji ED-U) from the 14"X36" TRI-FOLD box of 25 sheets. I get 5 Spools of 120 and One 35mm strips from one sheet. I then roll these strips onto spools with Black Plastic "Leaders" taped to the ends. This works well in a medium format camera that has a Mechanical Counter,,,, However - NOT the older ones with a "little Red Window" on the back. For that, I have kept the Backing Papers from true films I have used / with the spools of course. Works well for me. Using ISO-50 to 100, Depending on the light given. (I use the 35mm "leftover" in a Kodak Bantum 828 camera. It will not work well in a SLR 35mm camera.)Quote:
