Rollei Retro 80s

[Rob Archer]

Anyone here using this film? I've just bought 5 rolls (120) to experiment with, and I wondered if there's any tips, dev recommendations etc. My standard Dev is ID11/D76, so experience with that would be handy.

I tried it with Rodinal. I based my times on Rollei Retro 100 film, as I couldn't find data anywhere on the 80s.

It worked well, and the negs seem great (haven't printed them yet). The most notable item to me was how clear the film base is..also perhaps the straightest, uncurled film I've ever seen.
