Hi Folks again,
sorry for the delay, it's taken a while for the emails to get around
the world. Not good news I'm afraid, Efke cannot perforate 70mm
stock. This is becoming a lonely quest! Sad, last October I rolled
up at a heavy horse ploughing competition and mounted my
1904 Sanderson on it's period tripod and exposed 3 of my last
precious quarter plates (7 left now). I had a small crowd gather
around me to watch the performance, and had to answer a host
of questions. I will at least be able to chop down 5x4 plate for it I
suppose.... The 616 collection have never left the shelf.

The Efke stock produces quite dense negatives, so there's a
place for it - if that's what you want. It suits me becasue it's an
archaic emulsion and makes my old relics behave the way they
would have wheb they were newer. Having said that...... if Tmax
is what I can get I'll go for that, I'm quite capable of processing it
on the hard side. Efke are, however, quite prepared to run a
batch... but I'm still awaiting an answer on the perfed stock.
Looks as if you are all Blad users!

Hi Folks, any other nutters out there who like putting film through old
classics.....
I have started a web page to pool resources, essentially to get email
addresses of anyone who wants to use one of the formats above, when
we have enough people, I can get the distributor to run off a batch of these
almost exstinct film sizes. Worth a go, I hope.
The page is at http://licm.org.uk/livingImage/70mm_616_Rollfilm.html
Failing that, has anyone got any of the above stock they want to get rid of?
And some 125mm NATO-2 Aerial recon film would be nice too......

Well bit late I know! Confirm all the above - will not take 220.
However I have a favour to ask, if anyone has a 220 Autorange,
can I see a picture of the top showing counter, back showing red
window(s) and back inside showing masks. Particularly
interested in those with pre war Compur shutters. The LICM
camera is a 12 frame only example and I am curious to know
when the dual format became available.
