Hi John,

First, I must state that I do not use anything larger than 8x10, but I do 
recall seeing B&W film available for larger formats.  I can't say I ever 
recall seeing larger sizes available in color.  For B&W you might want to 
check B&H, Badger Graphics and Freestyle Sales, also the View Camera Store 
may be able to help.  Good Luck!

Regards,  Pete
