Use Rodinal as color developer

[Ranieri]

Let’s face it; this post was just (yet) another attempt at making Rodinal a unique/magical developer.

Just as with the stand development non-technique, where rodinal is supposed to be the only developer capable of doing it (ruining it, actually).

No. That was never my intention. Rodinal is cheap, that's why I bought it and started researching a bit, stumbled upon that Lomography article, I was intrigued and asked here. Just curiosity and ignorance as far as I'm concerned.

Yes, desaturating a scan in Photoshop etc. is trivial. It's literally two clicks with the mouse in PS or GIMP, probably in just about any editing suite.
And no, it doesn't remove dye clouds. In a B&W developed negative, there aren't any to begin with.

many mail order labs WONT process expired film rolls PERIOD

This wasn't about expired film until you brought it up.
I've never had any problems with labs not accepting to process expired film and this is the first time I hear about it altogether.

From here on back on-topic; any further attempts to derail and troll in the process will be dealt with appropriately.

Personally its a far far far more logical thing to do considering many mail order labs WONT process expired film rolls PERIOD.

Really?! First time I hear this.

And more importantly, how can they tell someone's Ektar 100 is expired?

First thing that comes to mind is Athiril's first post in this thread, but I'm not sure it's what you are refering to.

Bleach & colour processes

Hi all, I've done a bit of reading (and searching on APUG) wrt Bleach Bypass. Clearly one can bypass the bleach stage altogether which will result in serious contrast, but what surprises me is that people recommend underexposing by a stop in order to bring some of the highlights back...

Truzi, can you be so kind as to send me a pm on here? have a comment to share with you about something you posted on a closed thread and just cant find a means to message you on here.

Thanks kindly

That isn't it.

Developing color as B&W, then bring it back to color?

I know that you can develop C-41 with B&W chemicals, and you'll get a B&W negative. I also know that you can develop C-41 to B&W, see how it looks, then 'finish' developing it to color. Film Rescue does it, and I'd like to try it, but I'm not sure how it's done. I realize that on...

sorry for late reply, I posted this on developing in BW first then bleach and reprocess in C41 which worked.

I am interested in the Rodinal color effect however not yet tried that.
