jonnyboy Posted April 12, 2017 Share #30525 Posted April 12, 2017 The top strip shown (Buffet) looks more like light fogging to me, along the edges especially. Are both strips from the same roll? Gary yeah same roll 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stray cat Posted April 12, 2017 Share #30526 Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) Thank you both. The thread moves so fast, 2 days and many great shots in between (most of all those fantastic 80s London shots, to think that our city/people shots we take now will give us these feelings in 30+ years is always strange.) Another from the same roll of Portra 160, R6, 90 Summicron-R - Cape Banks, complete with an adventurous cyclist for Henry. And another long exposure on beautiful Pacific sandstone shores of NSW, 28 Elmarit-R II With your negative problems jonnyboy - maybe try to simplify what is happening before you lose more shots, to clarify if it is camera and/or development? Those negs look pretty horrific! Swish swish, pat, pat x 4 a minute. There doesn't seem so much scope for agitation to go so wrong? Ilfosol 3 has always given me superb results. Could you expose a roll with the lens cap on the camera? It might help confirm where the problem lies. Good luck, I'd hate for you to have more great shots lost to the fickle gods of chemistry. Firstly, lovely pictures Coogee - that NSW landscape and colours are really spectacular. Also, love that 90 Summicron-R - I had one too with my R system. Actually all the R-series lenses are good. Secondly, thank you for your kind comment about the 80s pictures from London. I was absolutely rapt to see Hardster's as it took me back in a way to those days. Great stuff and, as you say, today's pictures are the stuff of fascination and good vibes in another XX years. Which brings me to the other important point you raise - jonnyboy's negatives. There is nothing here that can't be fixed but I think there are a number of issues, starting with light leaks. I'm going to speculate that this is happening as you load the negatives from the cassette into your tank, jonnyboy. Please ensure you are doing this in a completely dark environment. I don't do it in a dark room, I use a light-tight "darkroom tent" that I bought from B&H (https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/41880-REG/Photoflex_AC_CROO1_Film_Changing_Room_25.html) and which will last you years. Once you've gotten to the wet stage, ensure your chemicals are mixed to the correct proportions and are the correct temperature - 20 degrees celsius/68 fahrenheit works for most things, and the massive developer chart app gives you a great tool which will help you adjust the development time if you are at a higher temperature for whatever reason. I don't recommend developing at UNDER 20/68. Next, follow this technique by Chris Crawford who really knows his stuff: I am a lot gentler on my negatives than he is, just giving my tank a sharp tap on the bench when I've finished inverting the tank. Also, I do the inversions a bit less enthusiastically than Chris, too, more like a mild-mannered cocktail shaker. And Coogee gives a great suggestion - just develop a roll. Rattle off the first half of the roll at a white wall or something giving a range of exposures, from -5 stops to +5 stops from correct exposure (if using a white wall, correct exposure will be what your meter reads PLUS two stops eg if it reads 1/125 at f8, give and exposure of 1/30 f8 for correct exposure, then for -5, give 1/1000 f8, then 1/500 etc through to 1 sec f8 for plus 5 stops. This will be an invaluable resource for, not only your developing technique, but also your meter/shutter etc. Take notes of each frame you shoot, and exactly the proportions of chemicals you mix, agitation scheme, temperatures etc. It seems a lot of work, but I can pretty much guarantee it will provide enough data for the good minds on this thread to point you in the right direction. And good luck! Edited April 12, 2017 by stray cat 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stray cat Posted April 12, 2017 Share #30527 Posted April 12, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) And now a question to you all from me. I have found amongst a bunch of old camera stuff two exposed, undeveloped rolls - one 620 roll of Kodak Verichrome Pan and one roll of Ilford FP4. I'm not sure of the ages, but let's say probably from the 50s or 60s. Would anyone have any suggestions of development times for them. I use XTOL 1:1 usually, or I have some Rodinal or could mix up some Caffenol. Has anyone tried anything like this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Henry Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share #30532 Posted April 12, 2017 The stripes (white on the negative and therefore dark on the print) do line up with the sprocket holes. Definitely an agitation problem. Yes I agree with Chris , Jonny your developer doesn't move enough inside the bath Look at the edge of the negative , it's unhomogeneous Best Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Henry Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share #30533 Posted April 12, 2017 Yep, got a bucket full of Ektar 100, and on the Doc's orders will get some Portra too. Not sure if my anti-social nature will handle the masses though, lots of people, lots.
