8 x 10 films

Postby Greenspeed » 28 Apr 2013, 11:58

Hi,

Where do you get your black and white films? Thinking of buying from overseas but worry the films might be fogged by x ray.

Regards

I'm just going on what i've heard on forums but apparently you would have to send film through an xray 100 times before you noticed fogging.

I've had a fair bit of film sent from the US (both 4x5 and 8x10) and never had a problem with fogging so far. Mostly it's been purchases from private sellers rather than shops.

Thanks guys. Now I more comfortable getting films from OS. Cheaper as well.
