4x5 Emulsions: What do you shoot?!

tingm · 17th September 2005

I'm just curious.

So what does people shoot on their 4x5?

So far I'm shooting Ilford Delta 100, just based on availibility. Shot some E100 and Provia 100. They're ok. From what I'm reading at LF.info and photo.net, astia seems like an interesting emulsion to try. I don't think I'd like vivid Velvia. Also want to try Ektachrome 64 -- are these hard to come by?

I think there is Astia here in HK for 4x5, Ektachrome 64 on 4x5, forget about it! There is Ekachrome 64 for 35mm here (HKD 50/piece)

i just use fuji provia 100 for colour and tri-x 320 kodak for black and white. i find kodak colour films a bit too warm, or maybe i am using the wrong type of film....
