Anybody try this stuff yet? I am interested in 120 roll film. Not available at Silverfast.

Silverprint emailed me to say that they no longer stock due to image quality issues. I'll try to find out more.

Silverprint say that they have yet to see any good results from RSD, and that they are waiting for more information from Rollei. I was looking forward to using it.

BW reversal doesn't sound like a good quality film in the first place... sure it has a higher contrast but that's only because it has a much lower latitude... people might just not know how to properly expose for it (would explain why silverprint has been getting complaints). when you shoot tri x you have something like 6-7 stops or more before something is totally over or under, but with bw reversal you'd have something like 3 stops of leway. it also has considerably less detail in the shadows and greys.
