8x10 inch X-ray film test

jon.oman · Dec 1, 2011

This is my first 8x10 inch image in over 30 years, and also the first image on X-ray film.

CSX 8x10 inch Green Laditude film
Cambo Legend 8x10
Caltar II-N F5.6 300 MC
F22, 8 seconds, 80 ISO
D-76 full strength, 6 minutes, 68 degrees F.
Deep tanks were used.

The exposure was adjusted for the bellows factor.
The image was cropped to a 2:3 ratio.

I'm finding that 810 x-ray film is great bang for buck, I've been play with Kodak MXG which I rated at ISO25 and develop in Rodinal 1:200

Try this. Make the back plumb to gravity and drop the front (rather than pointing the camera down). See how you like that.

At this point, I just can't aford anything else! Like any film, you just have to learn to work with it.

Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try next time.
