Subject: [Leica] which medium format?

I was at the UK's Focus on Imaging show on Monday,
where I bought some Ilford SFX in 35mm and 120. It was
customer pressure that made them reintroduce the 120 -
that wasn't part of their original plan - so there's
certainly a lot of interest in the stuff. 

Great to see TWO Ilford stands there - the Gallerie
inkjet paper company, and the film company - who have
also introduced a new inkjet paper, Harman FB Matt -
lovely looking stuff, a real FB feel to inkjet paper
and a gorgeous matt finish.

So looks like 120 will continue as long as there's
sufficient demand.
