Doc Henry Posted May 20, 2016 Author Share #15681 Posted May 20, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I updated my note, not sure if you saw it. The water in the B&W version shows more of the ripple in the highlights (center frame) which is not present in the color version. Not sure if this is the film or if the wind was just not there for the color version. Weather is not enough sunny that day , a little windy and a little cold , it's spring I like this place , may be I'll return this w-e. For the picture the two pictures are taken almost at the same time Thanks for your comment Marc Best Henry 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fotoklaus Posted May 20, 2016 Share #15684 Posted May 20, 2016 Neil, I am not familiar with LC29. It's Ilford, so on their website you normally find excellent information wrt the use of their products. Personally I am almost never re-using developer. Two reasons for that: Firstly, if I have fresh developer (usually, D-76 or Rodinal) every time, I know what result I get. There are already so many variables in the analogue process, that I try to minimise variables where I can. And I suppose that a slightly used developer gives different results from a fresh one, even taken refreshment solutions, or extended development times into account. Secondly, I probably will forget how many films I'll have developed, how to extend the development times, etc.. I simply cannot be bothered to note down every time... An exception would be two-step developers like Tetenal Emofin, which are designed with re-use in mind, and offer unique balancing effects. However I have not used those recently. Rodinal, by the way, is quite an unusual developer. It is diluted in almost homeopathic ways (which means it lasts forever). And it changes with time into a nice dark brown colour but that does not impede it's developing function (contrary to all other developers that I know of). If you have time to read, and possibly an inquisitive and experimental mind you might consider buying some books on the matter of analogue film development; "The film developing cookbook" being one of the titles that come to mind. Regards, Christoph Rodinal is really a one shot developer, as it oxidates rather fast when mixed with water (remarked in the data sheet also). And the negatives will become grainy, when used over 20°C. Other develpers could be used at 22° or even 24° C, Rodinal could not. Execpt you want to have real grainy pictures. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodinal is simply a strange beast ! On one hand, at low dilution , higher temperature respectively you get grain the size of cobblestones, on the other hand, when diluted at 1:100 and used in stand development it creates very fine grain and nuanced tonality...

Fotoklaus Posted May 20, 2016 Share #15686 Posted May 20, 2016 It's not a strange beast, but it was invented at a time, when film speed of ISO 25 was superfast, film emulsions were put on big glass plates and not everybody had warm water coming out of the water tap ;-) So 20°C has been quite "warm" at that time.

Denis Lincoln Posted May 20, 2016 Share #15687 Posted May 20, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thank you for the kind comment. I develop in Ilfotec HC 1+31, 9:30 @ 20C. 2 to 3 gentle inversions per minute. I've been very happy with the results even pushed another stop to 1600. Looks lovely...

gsgary Posted May 20, 2016 Share #15689 Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) yep that sounds about right. I know from looking at my negs that my current method is fine. My initial question was because someone threw a spanner in the works. I've got 11 or 12 rolls of 120 to devolop tonight and I will mix a separate mix for each half a dozen. I will post up later the resultsI'll be drinking real ale while you develop, [emoji1] have fun i won't [emoji1] Sent from my SM-G903F using Tapatalk Edited May 20, 2016 by gsgary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsgary Posted May 20, 2016 Share #15690 Posted May 20, 2016 Thanks for the link to the pdf. I probably should have read that before. In fact they say you shouldn't use conventional b&w developers: Conventional black and white developers and fixers are not recommended for use with XP2 SUPER film as inferior results are obtained. Always use C41 type chemicals. Does this look inferior ? XP2 developed in Rodinal 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A miller Posted May 20, 2016 Share #15691 Posted May 20, 2016 Guys got a question. I'm going to Scotland for 2 weeks and staying with my daughter and future son in law. After that I am going to Switzerland for 11 days then back to the rig. I really want to shoot film for this trip but worry about airport security and screwing up my film. Yes I am sure I can send film online to my daughters place but what can I do after that plus I would either have to take all those exposed rolls of film to Nigeria ( not a good idea) or get my wife to hand carry it back to KL for me....... She ain't going to like that idea. Other option is Leicac S..... But I want to shoot film Neil - For what it worth, I had a bad experience at Heathrow yesterday. They wouldn't hand check my film in the security checkpoint. I insisted on speaking to a manager and finally got them to agree to hand check my exposed rolls. But for unexposed rolls they would only hand check if the ISO was 3200 or over. Funny thing was that they didn't even know what 3200 ISO meant, and thought that the label "120" on my MF roll meant it was 120 ISO. I hassled them just enough to at least get the 6 exposed tools hand checked. And it took a good 15 minutes away from my "lounging" I never had this problem at any other airport, including JFK, La Guardia in NY, Miami International and Ben Gurion in Tel Aviv. People seem really on edge these days.... Adam, When we last spoke you were curious about the Fomapan 100 film that I use. So here are some picture samples that show some of the characteristics of the film that I particularly appreciate: The first image on page 763, May 13th in this thread shows how well the film separates the clouds from the sky, without the aid of any filter. The images below, both taken at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, show the tonality of the film, which I much appreciate; it has a nice, dark, gutsy feel and it is not easy to blow the highlights. The grain, admittedly is not the finest, and perhaps another developer but Rodinal would help with that. And while I still have not printed these pictures, I have little doubt that they will print even better than they scan. 160506_1_MP_0026-2.jpg MP, 2/35, Fomapan100, Rodinal, svp 160506_1b_MP_0002.jpg MP, 2/35, Fomapan100, Rodinal, svp Rgds C. Fantastic, Christoph. I'll have to give it a try. Thanks for sharing. Creeping through...
