This rumor is cyclic!!
A major variation being they'd discontinue the brownie film.
Once it WAS true and they took out the 4x5! (a black day)
I e mailed them in a panic last year or the year before and they e mailed me
back and told me not to worry. I PROMISED to use brick of it every season!
but lied.
doing great with Delta 100 in Xtol for the super high res stuff.
If they do take out the APX 25 we do have tech pan which DOES come in all sizes
including sheet film.
Erwin said I think to just use it with a CC cyan filter to correct for it's red
hypersensitivity so peoples will look good.
What the hell I'd just use it with my famous default yellow-green!
