Hi,

You can still buy it fresh. All the bother with the 8x10,
personally, it doesn't seem worth the work. The
8x10 transparencies impress on the lightox mighty!

Best, Rich

Hello,

I was cleaning a stack of 8x10 double sided film holders and found one
that still had a sheet of film in it, 8x10 Fuji Provia 100 transparency
film. I last shot Provia 3 years ago and this one sheet did not get
exposed. It's been sitting in the basement, adjacent to the darkroom, at
room temperature 70°/80°, depending on the season (darkroom is
airconditioned 68°), so the question is, how I should expose the film.
Will a standard reading off a 18% grey card be alright, or should I
overexpose, and if so, by how much?

Regarding developing, I'm taking it to the lab that still does 8x10
transparency film. What instructions should I give them?

I know, it's just one sheet of film, but it is a gorgeous film, the colors
are very natural, not saturated., so I would hate to waste it.. and I'll be
up on the roof in the next few days, and want to take the shot from up
there.

Thanks in advance,

Bogdan
