Which film stock do you use?

Post by Ektagraphic »

You can vote for each choice if it applies to you. For example, if you shoot Ekachrome and Tri-X, select both.-Thanks

I have always used Ektachrome 64T but I just ordered some Tri-X....Which film sock(s) have you been using lately?

Pull that old movie camera out of the closet! I'm sure it's hungry for some film!

Why isn't Plus-X on this list?

Kodak does not sell 100D in double or super8 so you must have bought it from Wittner, Pro 8mm or Spectra?

I use all the Kodak S8mm stocks, plus Ektachrome 100D from Wittner and some Fomapan R100 or Orwo UN 54, of course

I put that becuase Freestyle is the only supplier of Foma in the US....If you are overseas, I don't know too much.

Dude - If you want valid statistics you should trash this thread and start over with all of the emulsions on their own tab.

Especially when it comes to Kodak B&W reversal.
There have been so many changes between Plus-X and Tri-x over the past years that people might be curious to see how that played out.
Putting them on one tab is like having one tab for Kodak B&W.

These two stocks are still very different from each other even if most people don't understand it.

I would hate to give Kodak the impression that people would make due with only one B&W reversal stock.
