5x7 chrome film, good sources for

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Large format photography : One Thread

Over here in the US, I rarely see 5x7 slide film available but would like to purchase some at a reasonable price. Supposedly, Fuji Velvia is sold only in Europe. Does anyone on the list buy this film or perhaps other 5x7 slide film (eg. Kodak 100VS) ?

I shoot up to 8x10, but prefer to not go through the hassel and hazards (scratches, dust, fingerprints) of cutting up 8x10 Velvia to 5x7 size.

I have yet to contact Photo Warehouse for a quote, but do intend to do that eventually at least just to comparison shop.

Badger Graphics' site does not list any film for sale.

Last time I bought 5x7 Velvia from Badger it was somewhere around $100 - $120 for a 20 sheet box. They also have Provia F.

Can anyone send em the link to the Badger Graphics web site? I too shot 5"x7" and would like to see what they have. I was unable to find the site.

Never mind. I did find the page . It would not load the first time and sent me to a generic Domain Registration page.
