The non-flash version is  SP 663 or "5071" and is quite inexpensive.  I just

bought another 100' roll for a bit over $40 plus postage from one of the
mail order places in NYC (Adorama this time).  That's maybe $2.50/roll.

Each batch has a different "speed" and color-pack "setting"  which is why
buying from a single lot (or in a big roll as I do) can be a good idea.

Works very well (but not three  years after the expiration date when not
refrigerated -- "blacks" come out medium-dark purple  :-).

P.S. - Also note that the correction required and the E.I. is printed on the

          box it comes in (at least for the 100' roll box).  My current one
          happens to be E.I. of 40 (much faster than last batch) and a
          called for correction of "+05M  +05Y".
