This is what happens when you shoot a roll of Double X

[timor]

....But anyway, why did you assume Gary is not using 35mm film ?
DXN comes only in 35mm format.

Never used it and never heard of it, so I don't have a benchmark to go off of. I don't dabble in Brit film.

Ha ha ha ! DXN, pure American stuff. Made, still, by Kodak right here, in USA. Truly proffesional, never catered to amateurs in 35 mm cartridges. Full name is Eastman double x negative.

The last time I saw Kodak 35mm film in MY neck of the woods (as opposed to right here in Toronto USA) was about 8 years ago when I found an old roll in a box of odd stuff.

Ha ha ha!

So, Iowa is not in USA ?

So, Iowa is not in USA ?

Oh, heck no. We moved to Mexico back in 1997.

No kidding, in Mexico everyone knows about DXN !

But we moved to the French-speaking area.

Well, I guess my level of whisky in blood matches yours....

Double X was used to film most of the famous B+W movies

Even assuming it's NOT 35mm, how does one manage to load a roll of film twice?

But, it is 35 mm. And wait until you expose 4x5 twice by accident. Or develop clean sheet.

Let me know when 4x5 film comes in rolls.............

Spitfire pilots used it in operation Crossbow to find V1 and V2 rockets they would fly over in 2 different directions to make a 3D photo

KODAK: EASTMAN DOUBLE-X Black & White Negative Film 5222/7222

It's an Eastman-Kodak motion picture film, last sold in 400 foot and 1000 foot rolls in either 35mm or 16mm sizes. Here is the technical data sheet for it. http://motion.kodak.com/motion/uplo..._Films/BW_Negative/Technical_Data/5222_SS.pdf

Not really sure if this is still being made or not, since almost all USA theaters have gone to digital projection, and black and white film stock is not all that popular. But it is a 400 ISO film, so it would be a very useful B&W film for movie makers who are still shooting on film. I assume however that Double-X is possibly still in production though, since the most recent tech sheet is copyrighted 2013.

DXN is ISO 250 daylight and ISO 200 artificial light. I believe ORWO is making ISO 400 material.
