The K400 is partly underexposed, too.

I see the typical light leak from the felt of the canister. Did you load and unload the film in bright sunlight? The exposure of the frames is not equal. Your camera seems not to expose properly.

I would check the light seals of your film back.

Oh yes. Ektar 25 was great.

Never heard of it. In the low ISO range everything has been discontinued: Agfapan 25, Orwo NP15, Kodak Panatomic X (which was ISO 32). Panatomic X would be great to be availiable again.

My sample picture on 135 film.

I divided powder developer already many times and I never had any problem with it.

Well, I don't own a calibrated screen. I did the colour conversion with VueScan by sight and with no further adjustment. The tint may be fine adjusted with some more effort than I did.

No, I am sorry.

Nothing really compares to the long gone slow speed films Agfa APX25, Orwo NP15 and, not to forget, Kodak Panatomic-X. There are different, but interesting films still available. Ilford Pan F. Adox CMS-20. And Adox HR-50, which I like very much.

This might be the reason. Maybe I should try warm drying of the Kodak Gold as well. The Lucky has a thicker classical acetate base. Much preferred. I dislike that flimsy and curly PET stuff.

Here are my image samples of Lucky C200 and Kodak Gold. Zenza Bronica SQ-A Zenzanon-S 2.8/80mm Lucky C200 and Kodak Gold 200 Adox C-Tec C-41 kit Canoscan 8800F, Vuescan

Switch to Lucky Color C200. It is flat directly after drying. The colour rendering is similiar to Kodak, the grain even finer. Top: Kodak Gold Bottom: Lucky Color C200

What happens in detail? Bergger Pancro 400 has a high base fog and low contrast even when fresh. Will these issues get worse, or do you expect another kind of detoriation?

Even with a cheap developer I would not like to waste it. Carefully stir the powder and divide it by weight would be my way to go.
