$100 a click? I might have to call BS on that one :PA simple google search for 20x24inch (b&w) film found me some Ilford FP4+ at only about $36 a sheet (box of 25 for $912USD). Still, at $36 a click you dont want too many mistakes! I hate ruining 4x5 sheets of film lol!Seems to me that Ilford does ultra large runs once a year, maybe twice so when you can get it, you would need to buy a lot thats for sure. Personally, I couldnt afford sheet film of that size.

Though I fully understand that bigger negative equal more resolution, a negative of that size means you get only one or two chances at most. You subject can blink at the wrong time, move when you don't expect it, scratch an itch or just be of the personality that it takes a while to be comfortable in front of the camera. I would hate to know how much it cost every time they clicked the shutter. I read somewhere that a 20x24 inch negative was over $100 a click. IF that is accurate how much more could a 6 foot negative be?? Still an interesting read-------- Original Message --------

Interesting NPR article: "As Film Fades..."http://www.npr.org/blogs/pictureshow/2012/03/02/147796341/as-film-fades-photographer-makes-a-huge-huge-statement?sc=fb&cc=fpAs often is the case w/these things, some of the reader comments are more interesting reading than the actual article!Happy Sunday,Adrienne Moumin
