Hello Ambro51,

Do yo have any information about this film such as manufacturer, etc?

Is it possible to show a photo of those 12 magical boxes on the side of the film cartridge with the little "nubbin" at the bottom end of the film cartridge included in the photo also?

Best Regards,

Michael

I have a roll loaded in a Stereo Realist and plan to shoot it soon.   It looks to be 5 stops slower than 25.   This will be a tripod and cable release operation.  The camera is spot on at 1 second,  this should allow small aperature needed.   Interested to see how this fine grain BW film looks  as stereo slides.

Presumably you want to use this in one of your Leica cameras but if not this may be of interest https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5x-B-W-SLIDE-35mm-slide-film-Standard-processing-Kodak-2468-lomo-holga-120/113569524037?hash=item1a71456945:g:P~cAAOSwwPhWlWaR.

Hello Bob,

It looks like there are no magical boxes. Too bad.

The magical boxes can sometimes tell you additional information about the film in the film cartridge in your hand.

Hello Ambro51,

It would be helpful at this point if you had a Calculite XP to meter with.

Best Regards Both,

This may also be of interest: a super-fine grained film to make transparencies from negatives using one of Leitz inexpensive accessories. I used such in the Sixties with Dektol paper print chemistry under print-safe light. It also worked well under a contact printer.

Search for Kodak 5302.

I do not know what it costs today but in my time it was less than $3 USD for a 50' roll.
