Thanks! I didn't know there were microfilm fans out there.

Instamatic 60 with some micro. Taped a dark piece of film over the sensor to trick it to shoot slower.

Another nice microfilm image from 16mm. I, too, use a spot of developed film over the light sensor to increase the exposure. 73, Terry

That’s strange. When I did experiments with HQ 1461 and H&W Control, I got extremely dense negatives, even at 100 ASA. I don’t have an explanation, but at the time I was doing some really foolish things in an attempt to create a stable version of H&W Control - so something may have gotten messed up there

Adding a small amount of KBr has let me use it at EI 20-25 successfully without base fog, I could probably find a time for EI 100 with it, although it would almost certainly be somewhat contrasty and the resolution would be not as good. Development time would also be very long.
