    I added a little color to my X-tol, I skipped the pre-wash...

    I suspect the reason for the above suggestion from Kodak to presoak sheet films developed in trays has to do with the concern that adding developer to a dry tray can result in the film floating on top of the developer for the first few seconds, which results in uneven developer-film contact...

    Arista Premium 100 Film

    Kodak Alaris isn't being sold. The UK Pension authorities who effectively own Kodak Alaris have instructed Kodak Alaris to try to sell (for a sum deemed sufficient) that portion of Kodak Alaris' business that we here are most interested in - the film, colour photographic paper and...

    Question about the new airport CT scanners: does it affect film purchases?

    I saw those stickers. There were also older ones a while back from Kodak. I was just talking with an ebay seller who sells film as a small business and uses first class mail. He said that when he asked at his local post office, they told him that if anything, the labels most likely increase the...

    in that case i am glad to be corrected ! sorry for seemingly sending you down the garden path BSP. the no pre-wet recommendation i was working off of was 20 years old and older .. they *used to* say just go directly into the developer without a pre wet. i'm glad Ian C is on the job, the...

    This is all I could find regarding XTOL and soaking in water prior to development in the Kodak-Alaris PDF J=109, page 3, left column: “Agitating Sheet Film in Trays Presoaking sheets in water yields more even development, especially when multiple sheets of film are processed together. Even a...

    New (as of 2019) airport CT scanners

    Good to see someone has full confidence in the system. Not what i have been through, but this is also Africa, India, Arabian airports. We can hope some kind of general rule will be applied to film handling at airports, yet what bothers me is lack of consistency, proven cases of individual agents...

    New (as of 2019) airport CT scanners

    I know directly from Kodak Alaris that they are using for their films shipping by airplanes / airfright instead of shipping by ship for several months now. To be faster. Because of the huge film backorders they have globally. Air cargo is handled differently compared to passenger flights. Just...

    HC-110 New Formula

    ...developing old films at cold temps to control age fog, using HC-110 well beyond the official expiration date, etc etc. Hopefully Kodak Alaris didn’t dismiss the *true* appeal of HC-110 to its fan base when they switched formulas. Because really, under normal conditions just use D-76 or...

    ...negative films being affected. The current films now have a new, much more shiny type of backing paper which appears to have solved the problem. What is the Batch number and Develop Before dates for your film? The email to use to contact Kodak Alaris about your film is: Profilm@Kodakalaris.com

    HC-110 New Formula

    Cool, thanks. When I heard and saw the switch I headed down to my local supplier and nabbed the last bottle of the old stuff. Should keep me going for another 4-5 years.

    ...was whether this bottle contained HC-110 as a concentrate or as a stock solution. Extensive google searches weren’t helpful nor was the Kodak Alaris Data Sheet. Neither were calls to Samy’s, B&H, or Kodak Alaris (haven’t replied yet). Finally, I spoke to the wonderful people at Freestyle who...

    New (as of 2019) airport CT scanners

    Exactly. I hope Fuji and Ilford will also conduct tests and make requests in their respective areas. I think Japan will still be friendly to film photographers - whenever I insist on a hand check they do do it. Haven't seen these scanners yet at any airport, but who knows if they'll be...

    Lauffrey, I can not find this on the Alaris web site. Are you suggesting "Kodak Professional" on Instagram is an official Kodak entity or perhaps an one individual's facebook page. - Not disbelieving but not really believing either,yet.

    I must admit I am surprised, seeing their past information policy, to read this explicit warning by Alaris I wonder when Alaris will update their technical sheet from last October. The link I posted is still working, but I do not find the link anymore at their site. Kodak themselves still...

    Increasing grain for traditional grain films

    ...done all three. Grain was big. If you want it as visible as possible - scan. For me way to get huge grain now is current TMAX 3200. Even at ISO 800 and in TMAX developer it is mostly grain than image:smile: Ilford, no, Emulsion like Kentmere 400 gives less grain @3200 than this Kodak Alaris...

    Bergger Panchro 400 densities
