Re: [APML] Will a real astrophoto film please stand up.

Jason, one suggestion no one has mentioned yet is to
synthesize your own film.  What I mean is combine the
results of several films in photoshop to make one
super film.  For reds, E200 or Provia are great then
combine with a blue sensitive film such as Fuji 400,
or any of the new Kodak emulsions.    Also, another
alternative is to buy from someone on this list some
of the older Supra 400, Im sure at the right price you
can convince someone to let a few dozen rolls go!
