Ektapan was discontinued only a couple of years ago. It
was an ISO-100 version of Plus-X Pan sheet film with the
same very long toe characteristic but with the speed
adjusted to match ISO-100 color film so that the two could
be used interchangibly on the same set up. I am not sure if
Kodak still has a data sheet for it on-line but I am pretty
sure I have one someplace.
