Anyone still hypering film?

I bought some expired Tech Pan in 120 on ebay, which I'd like to try out with my Sky 90. I've been looking around for a 2nd hand Lumicon hypering setup, but if anyone in would hyper some for me.. I'll happily pay some $$$ in thanks.

G'day Dan,

I haven't heard of anyone hypering film for a long time now. Would be great to see the results from your techpan through a sky 90. What targets do you have planned?

Sorry mate, can't help you. Amazing how quickly people moved away from film. I don't see many people using it in astrophotography anymore which is a shame. I think film is underated and if I were to get into astrophotography, I would lean toward film.

Does 120 mean large format or the ASA rating? If its the format what kind of camera do you use for astrophotograhy?

120 is the format, i.e. Medium Format. I have a Mamiya 645 on hold at a shop which I intend to buy to use with the Sky 90.
