While wandering through the vast, gloomy, cobweb-ridden spaces ((c) H P Lovecraft) that pass for an attic in this place, looking for a measuring cylinder small enough to do R09 developer, I came across a dusty leather case - the original case for my Sanderson folding field camera which I haven't looked in for donkey's years. To my great surprise, apart from the hole where the camera should be, I discovered I also had not only a handful of dark slides for it, but also a set of adaptors to use them with film.

Right - where can I get quarter-plate film (or possibly sixth-plate - I'm going to have to measure them to be sure)?

Having measured it - 4.25 by 3.25 on the ground glass. That makes it quarter plate.

Either Ilford through their ULF order, but expensive, or Ag Photographic sells Adox, there's also Wephoto which is Filmtec (formerly Orwo) material.

Ah, if only I could get Adox to bloody well *work*!

Try it in Pyrocat HD. I've only been using EFKE/Adox films a shot time First in 35mm (1974) then 120 & 5x4 and 10x8
