Agfa SCALA testing

I was given a load of outdated AGFA SCALA 200 film which is really for use as B&W SLIDES but can be developed as negatives. Well. fisrt I tried it in a bact of MK35 Formula a single-solution 'Beutler' derivative that i had used for some PanF 120 but test lengths came out very under-developed so the MK35 must have oxidised, so next I tried RODINAL 1+50 for 10 mins as in the Massive De Chart and test length was still 'thin' but one 'worth showing' scanned well. I used my 'gift' COSINA CT-1 with the 50mm f2 Cosinon-S lens at f2.8 in winter light. The next test will be with some ID11 formula I mixed up to see if I get better density negs for printing.
