There is a thread on APUG about unexpectedly low levels for the ilford ULF order. If you have a horse in this race, you may want to check in and give Simon Galley some feedback. (moderators, I hope this is ok, seems important.)

New info from Ilford. They have extended the order time until 30th March and will make whatever is ordered in the stated sizes - no minimum quantity: http://www.apug.org/forums/forum146/...tml#post445520
Cheers, Bob.
Now there is a great company: No minimum order, for all of the various sizes.
Although I don't use anything ULF, I'll still say a big thank-you to Ilford.
Just placed a call to my distributor. Whole Plate in FP4+ should look simply drop dead gorgeous!
My continued thanks to Ilford for their support of our fine community of practitioners.
Here's what I just posted in the APUG thread:
Why, in 2007, anyone exposing black and white film would purchase anything but an Ilford product for that purpose is beyond comprehension. Bravo ILFORD Photo / HARMAN technology Limited!!!!
Ditto. For 11x14 Efke is roughly $4 / sheet (oh, and I like the film pretty well too). I might be willing to go up to $6 / sheet, but at $8 / sheet I begin thinking that I could take every shot twice on Efke film. I might try a box of FP4 for kicks, though. Perhaps I'll get addicted.

It's possible to know the price of everything and the value of nothing. I suspect many fail to recognize what we've got in Ilford and won't until it's gone.
I am seriously considering adding to my order of 5x12 and whole plate film this year.
