Price is .... interesting
By my calculations about £130 GBP per box of 20 sheets? Approximately £6.50 per sheet?

sorry little problem with the link...
http://www.japanexposures.com/2010/01/2 ... heet-film/
and yes it's a bit expensive...
but shipping costs are includes and here (in France) a good price for velvia 50 8x10 is 130 € (without shiping) for 10 sheets
(I cut down 5x7 from 8x10)
So, same price for me (and less problems)

another price from here :
FUJI 20 Provia 100F 5x7 = 125 €
If I buy 5 boxes, it's less expensive than provia 100f

Not that I'm in the market for velvia 5x7" film, but on a price per unit area rate compared to 4x5", given that its a special run, pretty oddball format, and includes international postage, to be honest it doesn't sound all that bad!

You can buy the similarly sized 13x18cm Provia film from MACO, then you could trim that to size instead. 10 sheets of Provia 13x18cm are €45.16 plus shipping.

Thanks for that link - very useful. Fortunately I have both 13x18 and 5x7 film holders, and that 13x18 Provia is reasonably priced. I'd rather have 5x7 Velvia 100, but not at over twice the price...
