Many people have emailed to ask me where to buy film in sizes which are no longer manufactured. Sometimes suppliers of weird film sizes can be found in the classified ads in "SHUTTERBUG" magazine. And occasionally odd sizes are available in B & W from European or Asian manufacturers via suppliers like camera stores, film processors, et c. EBay is also a source for film in oddball sizes.
