I assume you are talking about film processing hangers right?

They come in various sizes. 35mm, 120, and sheet film hangers i.e 5×4 10×8.

If this is what your looking for I suggest contacting a pro lab near to you. They probably have some for sale. As you know not many people are still shooting sheet film.

Damn I thought that was the hangar they stored the old film stocks in, so that if you wanted to fake an alien autopsy film, you could get film with the correct edge codes for the period.

what size is kodak #6?

it’s not that people don’t shoot sheet film. it’s that the zone system types got into the develop-by-hand-in-trays method, claiming that it spreads the chemistry more evenly and so on. Or, loading it into mechanical processors, on the commercial color photography side. Personally I think the hangers are a lot easier for B+W sheet film.

you might try www.columbuscameragroup.com, they’re in Ohio, USA.

or www.pacificrimcamera.com

or, best bet, eBay of course. Right now there’s 16 items for sale when you do a search for film hangers. European 13cm x 18 cm size was never popular in the US. But there’s also eBay.de (germany), eBay.fr (france), and eBay.co.uk (UK), and all the other ones as well…

Oh OK I get what your looking for. I was talking about hangers for deep tank processing. I have never attempted to Dev sheet film in a tray.
I assume the hanging method is the same as a large dip and dunk process.

In the future we might all have to process our film ourselves as there may be no labs left to offer the service.
