I'm thinking of shooting ilford SFX with my Holga. My thought is to glue a step up ring in front of the lens and screw an R25, R29 or R72 filter in. Has anyone shot under these circumstances? What development times have you used for Xtol, HC110 and Rodinal?
 
I've shot Rollei 400 IR in mine, with a 720. a 52mm step up ring will fit snuggly, over the lens. No need for glue. I've only ever used Pyrocat, or PC-512 developers... How do you plan to keep the shutter open? I have one of those contraptions that slip over the lens, allowing the use of a cable release. Not necessary with the Holgon, with it's funky little electronic shutter.
