Hi,
B&H sells Arista EDU 400. It does not sell Foma 400, not in the 4x5 format.
Adorama sells both.
While Arista sells for around $54, (for 50 sheets), Foma sells for around $78.
I don't know why, as Foma is the apparent manufacturer.
At $78, people will either choose Ilford HP5, (for $98), or Arista EDU.
Regardless of Arista's and Foma's price, the reviews written on the B&H
website don't fare well for Arista 4x5", (50 sheets package) and Adorama
has no reviews for Foma 4x5" yet.
I would love to buy Arista 400 in the 4x5" format to shoot it at its box speed
and even push it as much as possible: (800?, 1600?, 3200?). However, the
reviews don't send a good vibe. The film, Arista, has been found defectuous.
Is Foma, its manufacturer, also bad?
Thats why I would like to ask, what has been your experience with Arista or
Foma 400, in 4x5 format?
Has your experience with Arista EDU 400, or Foma 400 been bad in any way?
Look, here are the mixed reviews for this film on B&H's website:

Have you pushed any of these two films? If so, by how much?
Thank you in advance, kind regards,
Ig.
