    Best use for a 10x15 camera / film material

    What would you say is the best (practicable) way to make photos with a 10x15 camera (Linhof Technika I).

    As there will be no 10x15 sheet film, would you use 10x15 paper (Gradation?) oder reduce to 9x12 sheet film?

    Put a 4x5 back on the camera.

    Fotoimpex still list Adox CHS-100 II in 15x10 - out of stock at the moment but expected back at the end of May. Could be worth stocking up!

    10x15 paper negatives would be really nice, easy to fine ( just cut 16x20 down ) and easy to process.
    or you could make your own. over the years i have made my own paper negatives a lot, store bought emulsion
    works fine if you don't want to make your own ( took me 2 hours and a few ingredients to make my own ) and cold pressed paper works great.

    good luck !

    A Fomapan 100 50pcs 10x15 seems also to be availible at reasonable Price (ca 35 Euro per 50 Pcs)

    Here in europe I can get it online from Foma directly...

    Banse & Grohmann in Wernigerode also offer 10x15cm film. No reason to modify the camera, just go ahead and use it.

    I just received a shipment from them. Yes, their price list has not been changed since 2013, but that is a good thing in today's market.

    But Foma direct is cheaper 37 to 43 Euro. They write at B&G the film is made in eastern europe, is it a Foma or anything else??

    Just ordered 100 Sheets of Fomapan 100. Costs are 86 Eurocent per sheet including shipping from Czechia..
