Photo Forum / Film Photography / Darkroom / November 2004J & C Classic film
Anyone know who manufactures J & C classic 200 and 400 film? Or are they actually producing things themselves from old formulas? Or what known and current films they are most like? > Anyone know who manufactures J & C classic 200 and 400 film? Or are they > actually producing things themselves from old formulas? Or what known and > current films they are most like? According to the Foto Impex catalog (they're the Berlin Photography store/company that J&C markets in the US), the Classic films are made for them in Hungry. That leads me to believe they're made by someone other than Foma (Czech Rep) or Efke (Croatia). Both the Classic 200 and 400 are , well, what they say, classic emulsion and not T-Grain. I have not used either, but am awaiting an order of 4X5 in both flavors. Hey, where else can you get 25 sheets of film for less than 12 bucks! If you're looking for tech data and/or development data, then follow this link. It's in German, however, the development charts and the sensitivity curves read the same in any language. http://www.fotoimpex.de/Technik/Classicfilm/classicfilm.html > Anyone know who manufactures J & C classic 200 and 400 film?

Makes sense, I checked my Forte chemical and paper stock, and sure enough, made in Hungry. Somehow, I thought Forte was French... seriously. >Yup. Never thought of Forte.

I once wrote a report to a military officer and relied on a spell checker. Ever wonder what comes out of a spell checker when you type "warehouse" as "wharehouse"? Needless to say, I should have learned my lesson. (change the 'a' to an 'o') Come to think of it - I am hungry ;~) Does this mean you're anti-Semanitic?? ;) -- Mark > >> >Yup. Never thought of Forte.

Could be the name, or that Bergger relabels some of thier product.

They are pretty good at making the Arca Swiss!
