There are recipes you can make at home from the raw materials.  It used 
to be something of a cottage industry, back in the days when they taught 
basic chemistry in most schools...

Sounds like getting a 6x7 would be a waste then.  No wonder they are 
going so cheap right now.  The writing must be on the wall.



Medium format is primarily a professional photographer's camera. That 
they are dumping the stuff in droves is not going to help the pricing 
of it on the used market, nor is it going to do much for keeping 
manufacture of film viable.
OTOH, I suspect that processing will be available for some years to 
come yet, so if the format interests you, be aware that you may want 
to buy enough film to keep you happy sooner rather than later.


And probably the chemicals for processing.  Its been a long time.  Can 
the chemicals for processing keep for a long time like film, under 
cold storage?
