I'm looking for a dev time for Efke 50 120 in Rodinal at 1+50.

I've read that Efke requires an extra minute of dev time on top of the manufacturers recommended time, but I haven't found the official times anywhere.

The film was exposed with a yellow/green filter and given about 1 & 2/3 stops compensation.

Cheers.

Try the Massive Dev. Chart at digitaltruth.com and unblinkingeye.com. I'm sure you'll find an answer at at least one of these locations.

Ed Buffaloe recommends 9 mins at EI 40! I'll do one film at that to see if my filter factor was close.

I've not shot a lot of EFKE film, but what I have shot comes out quite a bit too contrasty without cutting the dev times and lengthening the exposure.

They say 9-10 minutes. I'd go for 10 with agitation every other minute.
