[LargeFormat] Disappearing film

[Vincent Dobson]

It seems that both Kodak and Fuji have discontinued their internegative
films!

What choice is left - I have more 35mm slides I want to copy onto 4x5
negative film.  This "changing to digital" is giving me much grief.

Can I copy the slides onto my regular shooting film like vc160 or Fuji NPS?
I normally use my enlarger as the light source.

thanks,
