I see, so ST8D in 16mm is now "made to order". Is it the same for 35mm?
The main Los Angeles optical sound houses - Chace, DJ, NT - all use AGFA ST8D. For 16mm track, I believe they use 35/32. Shot as 35mm, then slight to 16mm. I talked to Marc at AGFA probably four years ago and he said back then they AGFA hardly sells ST8D in 16mm.
