Kodak supplies Type B 65mm negative stock, but with a minimum quantity.

It is my recollection that Soviet-era 5-perf cameras were 70mm and  
not 65mm, but, of course, the perfs were Type B, and are compatible  
with both 65 and 70mm.

Unlike 35mm, for which the Soviets adopted the SMPE recommendation  
for KS perfs for camera negative and intermediate stocks, and the  
West did not and retained BH perfs for such stocks, 65/70mm has  
always been KS perfs.
