Re: Source for continuous tone ortho films

Hi Sam,

Kodak and Ilford are still making orthochromatic films. Just ordered some a
month ago.

Kodak has it's  Professional Copy Film in varying sizes. Ilford has it's
Ortho Plus Film in a number of sizes. I've been in a recent dilemma because
of Kodak discontinuing their Commercial Film, which was orthochromatic too,
and have been searching for and testing many different films to replace it.
My search has come up very short, but I'm still looking. Right now I've
settled on using Kodak's Copy Film because it comes the closest to matching
the discontinued film.

Sincerely,

Kevin Morris
