Cinestill DF96 monobath

Waving to Ruth before the asteroid hits.

Nikon F2, 45 2.8 AI-P, Kentmere 400, DF96 Monobath

 
Ach, roll #8 in still fresh DF96 shows severe bromide drag w CatLabs 320 Pro... No issues with other film at this point. Using my same agitation techniques as with other films that do not show bromide drag.
Not a dig on CatLabs, I guess DF96 is not a decent match for it. So now that is three films for me that don't work well with DF96 - Catlabs 320, Silberra Orta, Adox CMS 20.
 
This roll of Acros II was developed immediately after the Catlabs disappointment. Which shows it was an incompatibility.

Just after a storm blew through, we had sweet waves and clean air..

 
Glad to see the Kentmere 400 works well with the monobath.
