oops that was sposed to be more than a link but that was the link.  That is pretty crazy cheap for 8x10 film.   

The dev times on the spec sheet are obviously probably not ideal image quality  90 sec at 95F.   Maybe though.   I would try something less aggressive probably.

If I recall correctly from the late 1970s, x-ray films were designed to be responsive to a florescent screen built into the carrier.  The silver content was quite high, so I have to wonder about $35/100 sheets.  In the 1970s. a 0.5 second x-ray exposure was not uncommon.  That would suggest a very low ASA.  Given the low cost, it would be fun to do a series of strip tests.  A developer such as D-19 or diluted Kodalith A B would work. 

Good luck,

Randy,

I have never used x-ray film so can’t definitively say but I’d think it could be used in a camera.
Filters … for what? I don’t think you’d need filters.

X-ay films if I recall are coated on both sides of the support.
