I have that version - printed upside down! I saw it on the newstand, checked another which was right side up, then asked the lady if they had a special order of these and she said, "Oh no, that's a mistake, I'll send that back.." and I said, "Oh no you won't!" and bought it!

I'm sure it was on purpose... If it wasn't, WHAT A FIND!!!! :smile:

I've come to love dd-x and delta 3200 so much that I'm planning to exclusively shoot it during my upcoming trip to Europe (with a nd filter when required. It's just a perfect combo for me. It also works well since I will mainly be using only one camera, I don't have to change films between day and night time, or when I duck into a bar.

Of course I've had to switch to cheaper beer and whiskey to afford this habit!

DD-X probably has the ability to make polypan-F, the worst film on the planet, look good. Darko, you will test this for us :smile:

So, I tested Polypan with DD-X :smile:. Since I do not have developing times - I used 11.5 minutes because I developed it together with Kentmere 400.

Still did not made prints, but negatives (Kentmere and Polypan) are looking like they have less contrast than in Rodinal 1+100.

Negative scans on cheap 15€ scanner does not show any difference in grain, so I will post some scan of prints when I do it.
