Keep in mind most x ray film is double coated, although some, usually smaller sizes, may be single coated for better resolution. Also, the films are made to be sensitive either to blue (x ray film holders contain blue emitting phosphor) or green (usually laser printers) light frequencies (exposure is by light, not the x ray). Most films, especially at slower speeds, contain anti crossover technology, and frequently use flat grain. beeg From: pure-silver-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pure-silver-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Pablo Kolodny Sent: Friday, January 28, 2011 2:12 PM To: pure-silver@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [pure-silver] Re: [pure-silver]Radiographic film, was: Oh How I Miss This Paper Hell: why didn't I think of x Ray film before?

I had heard someone did such a thing and as it is impossible to get film size larger than 4x5 in my country and I wanted to shoot 24x30 cms with a nice old wooden camera...
