Please forgive the newbie questions, but:
What is "P-F?"
What is the "magic brush?"
Is Arista APHS a film used for enlarging negs?
I recently found out that my favorite film for interpositives has been
discontinued by Agfa, as per this note from them:
Subject: GO230p

Bill,
Sorry, the product GO230p in no longer available. It was a film with a variable
gamma emulsion. Contrast could be altered with blue or yellow filtered
light. It
was ideal for continuous tone gravure, for enlargements, to make standardized
contone positives from non-standardixed contone negatives.
It was a 7mil thick material that was processed in a Continuous Tone developer
like G7C.
We do not have a direct replacement for this material anymore since the demand
is no longer there.
Regards

No demand! If they only knew what a wrench this throws into my works!
Any advice would be very much appreciated.
