everheul Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Is there any online source for 13x18cm E100VS in europe that will ship to the USA. (I realize I will need the 13x17cm holder instead of the 5x7) Preferrably with a web site that has the option of using English or German. I have tried to get Kodak to sell this format here, but with no luck. I checked with Badger graphics via e-mail, and was told they could not get it. If I cant get the VS, I'll probably get velvia in 5x7 through badger graphics. I don't understand why Kodak sells EPY in 5x7 but not the VS, but I don't understand a lot of things they do.

huib_smeets Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 Eric, www.prophot.fr they have it. Website is in French, but I exchanged a few emails in english with them and they did understand me and answered in english. but shipping film intercontinental always involves the x-ray question...

dave_ender Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 Try www.jandcphoto.com. I've bought E100S in 9x12 from them. Maybe they carry 13x18 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim_atherton2 Posted September 28, 2002 Share Posted September 28, 2002 not for long, if they do, as Kodak is replacing E100S/SW with a new film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason_greenberg_motamedi Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 It is a real pain, but to avoid paying $5 per sheet, I have been cutting down sheets of 8x10 into 5x7. It takes a bit of time to set up, but I can cut a box of 10 quite quickly, and if I buy outdated film, can get a great deal. My understanding about why Kodak still makes EPY in 5x7 is that it is 'commonly' used by many galleries for repro work, at least according to the owner of the lab I use in NYC. Although it is not a 'vivid' or saturated film like VS or Velvia, EPY is an excellent film. With an 85B filter it works great outdoors, with an excellent neutral balance with great reciprocity stats. It is also $3/sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
