Kodak puts up 4X5 PMC, which I used all the time when working in a color
lab.

The range with color negative film is soooo much longer 5 stops than
reversal film 1 1/2 stops; and this PMC can be manipulated -- pushed,
pulled -- to render anything you want.

The other film that's terrific is Agfa Optima.  The shadow detail is
amazing.

P.S.  at $47 a roll, there's 100 rolls of 9 1/4" X 60" PMC available.
Anyone interested in going in?
