Where has all the Ilford Ortho Plus 4x5 gone?

[Eric Woodbury]

I've been trying to buy some Ilford Ortho for weeks now. Did somebody corner the market on this stuff? I'm on the list at B&H and my regular Samy's and Freestyle don't stock. What's up? Anybody else using this product?

Thanks for the help.

Try contacting Ilford directly, I used to use a lot of their Ortho film but that was quite a few years ago. Their last Stick list 2015 shos it only available in 5x4, but I think it was on an ULF run that year.

Chances are there's insufficient demand these days and it no longer commercially viable.

IanG, don't say that. I'm using the 4x5 and getting to really like it when I need high contrast. I hope it is only a matter of time. I emailed Ilford, but no word from them either. --ew--

Maybe I bought the last box, with my Jan 15th B&H order...

I buy this in 20 inch x 100ft rolls for making digital negatives and am about to order more.

Do you purchase these rolls directly from Ilford? What is the cost? Thanks!

From my Dealer Amplis, I am trying to put together a group purchase , contact me if you are interested, upwards $1200 per roll fyi.

Looking Glass Photo, Berkeley shows "one in stock" in 4x5 on their web site. A bit costly at $45.99

Just bought three boxes of 4x5 second-hand. Hope to try it to replace the last of the Tech Pan that I have for a Redwood project that requires backpacking.
