what was the last camera you used, last film and how was it developed

[removed account4]

some astia and fujicolor and plus x 120 ( all 35mm ) and 1 roll of adox 200
the adox and plus x together the other 2 were bunkmates
ansco 130 ambient 1:6 / 4mins sumatranol 130 @ 4 mins
BOOM !
less filling and tastes great

 

[Pentode]

Minolta X-370 with several zooms I'm testing.
Kodak Tri-X
I haven't developed it yet, but D-76 1:1.

 

[markjwyatt]

Pentax Spotamatic with Carl Zeiss 50mm f1.8 Ultron (plus Zeiss yellow filter). I developed it by sending it to The Darkroom. I am not sure what they use, but want to find out. I need to stat developing B&W myself, but need to develop scanning capabilities. Image from The Darkroom scanned negative.

EDIT: They use Ilford Ilfotech DD (I think this is aka DD-X).

Mamiya 645 Pro, Ektachrome E100G.
I shot two identical rolls - one in each back.
One roll was developed yesterday by The Lab in Vancouver.
The other will be developed by my friends in their JOBO using the past date Kodak E6 kit they had never opened.
Essentially, a quality check.
Unfortunately, due to the forest fires all around our province, there is a lot of smoke haze in the air and the colour balance might be a little bit warm when it comes to the quality check. We will see.

Still using one of my plain-prism Nikon F's, the black one, with Ultramax 400.

Prints from FM3a and Ultramax 400 were excellent. Continuing with Ultramax in the Nikon F and now also in a GR1:

A roll of 20-30 year old T-MAX 100 (TMX) in 120 format, shot in my Pentax 67. I have no idea how the film was kept, but it is the first roll I shot out of a stash of 38 120 rolls given to me. I’ve read people say to expose for an extra stop for every decade of age, but. Given it was free, I figured I’d sacrifice a roll to test shooting as indicated (I’m too impatient to shoot an entire roll of bracketing.)

So I shot it at 100 developed it in Xtol 1:2 for 13 minutes, as the MDC suggests, and it came out perfectly. So perhaps these rolls were well stored before they got to me.

 

[Pioneer]

Used my Lomo LCA-120 to shoot a 120 roll of the Lomography F2/400 which appears to be some very expired Ferrania color film. I picked up 5 of these and this first one was exposed at box speed but I suspect that is wildly optimistic.

I am just now warming up the Jobo processor and will run this roll through first using some Kodak Flexcolor C-41 chemistry.

 

[Helios 1984]

Praktica L with Kodak 5302 (Says 1971 on the instruction) and I'm currently trying a 1 hour stand with Rodinal 1:100 .

 

[Luis-F-S]

HP5+ 8x10, Deardorff V8, 12" Dagor, 19" Artar amd 240 G-Claron Dagor type, developed in HC-110 Dilution B 8oz/2 sheets in unicolor II tube. Also 1 roll of Neopan 400 135, M6 with 50 Summicron & 90 Elmar, HC-110 Dil B.

 

[Helios 1984]

This morning, I re-tested the Eastman 5302 1971 with my Praktica L & Super-Takumar 55mm f/1.8. I did a first 3 shot test at ISO 1.2 ( 0 -1 +1) and a 2nd sequence at ISO 1.

- 5 min pre-wet
- 9:30 min at 21c with Rodinal 1:50
- Rinse
- 6 minutes Ilford rapid fixer
- 10 successive water changes (About 10 minutes)
- A final wash with distilled water & a tear of wetting agent.

The negative looks way better than yesterday's stand attempt and it is much more clearer too.

Yesterday I shot a test roll of Astrum Foto 100 (35mm), a Ukrainian film that is a reinvention/rebranding of an old Svema film, from what I can tell. For the first time in 15 years, I used my FM2 from college days, with the Tamron 70-210 (surprisingly good lens).
The Astrum web site offers precious little information about their films (http://www.astrum-ltd.com/en/kino-foto-materialy.html) - not even the speed of some of the emulsions. Since the Foto 100 is definitely presented as a 100ASA film, I shot it at 64ASA and bracketed. In the future, I will shoot it at 50ASA and probably choose a different developer (Rodinal seemed to enhance contrast, which this film definitely does NOT need)
The negatives are very contrasty, with a rather abrupt transition from dark/middle tones to detail-less shadows. Not what I would call a forgiving film. (It might be a misnomer to call its characteristic "curve", a curve!) But the "graphic arts" contrast aside, it has remarkably fine grain (I can barely detect it) and very high acutance. The negatives kind of reminded me of old Tech Pan. Curious stuff. Also, the polyester base is VERY thin, but dries so dang flat. In fact, it is one of the flattest films I have used, ever. I was given a few rolls of four different Astrum films to test, and each one has surprised me, in a good way. For a $4. roll of film packaged in CHEAP disposable bulk roll canisters, it has surprised me, big time. I'm going to explore the Foto 100 emulsion a lot more, processing in different developers to find the best contrast/curve behavior.
Here is a test image from that roll. Its from a negative that likely received half a stop over 64ASA:

Shot some Ferrania P30 in a Argus C-44 for Argus Day.

HC-110, H, 12m @ 20C

 

[Pentode]

Exakta VX with Zeiss Pancolar 50/2 (yellow filter)
Fomapan 100 (shot at box speed)
D-76 1:1, 10min @68degrees

With that roll I also developed a roll of Fomapan 100 shot a couple of weeks ago:
First 8 frames: Nikon FM2n with Nikkor 35/2.8

then I pulled the film and loaded it in a different camera -

Remaining frames: Mamiya DTL1000 with Soligor 21/3.8

Good looking stuff. I'd be interested to see the results of your experiments.

I've been developing some Arista EDU 100 in Perceptol. This is my first time using Perceptol. I shot the film at ISO 50. Photos were taken with a Mamiya C330 with the 135mm and 55mm lenses. I'm very happy with the amount and size of the grain. The images are some of the smoothest I've produced, and plenty sharp. But even with 15 minutes development with agitation, the negatives are low contrast. I've found it necessary to print through a grade 3.5 Ilford filter.

Seems promising. Where are you getting this film?

 

[glbeas]

Shot a roll of Konica 750 EI 2 last Thursday in my Sqai, 80mm PS R72 filter, developed it the following day. Base fog is evident but not real bad, 5 minutes in Rodinal 1:50 @ 70F. No prints yet just scans and PS tweaking.

Seems promising. Where are you getting this film?

A local shop run by a friend: Shadowsmith Photographics in Corvallis. He split an import order with a friend of his, and sells rolls of several Astrum films (including C-41 infrared color negative!) in his shop.
There is also a Ukraine seller on the ‘bay that sells lots of 5 and 10 rolls of it.

There is also the Film Photography Project in New Jersey that offers several of these Ukrainian emulsions, but they spool it into 24 exposure rolls and charge $7 or more for it. If you can get it shipped from the Ukraine, it’s much less expensive.

Leica IIIa 5cm f2 Summitar FP4 (expired 1990!) developed in RO9 20 mins at 20 degs C. Fair bit of base fog, as would be expected, but quite printable.

Hasselblad 501CM, Ilford FP4+, Ilfotec DD-X 1+4, 19 C, 11 mins.

A shot from that roll using the Zeiss Makro-Planar 4/120:

 

[Arthurwg]

Leica M6, Ilford XP2, shot with yellow filter, processed at local mini lab. Took 10 minutes, cost $6.50. Negatives look great although I haven't printed anything yet. I do think this is a great way to shot 35mm B&W. Perhaps next time I'll get prints as well.

 

[RalphLambrecht]

what was the last camera you used, could even to make 1 exposure
what film is in there, and if you processed it how was it developed ..

last camera i used was a western camera company cyclone #5 i used expired photo paper instead of film and it hasn't been developed yet ..

you ?

two films both fiomapan 400, developed for 18 minutes in RO0 1/50, one taken on my Leica 111c, the other in my Contina folder, lovely negatives and looking forward to pring them

Homemade, O'Rickity 1417, 14x17 green latitude xray, very dilute Pyrocat-HD. Working on a gum print... negative is a tad on the dense side, though. If it doesn't work, it should be a good candidate for carbon transfer. Cheers!

 

[Kodachromeguy]

Rolleiflex 3.5E with 75mm Xenotar lens, Leitz polarizing filter, tripod-mounted. Film: Fujifilm Pro400H, probably about 20 years old but frozen all this time, developed by North Coast Photographic in California. I exposed at EI=320. I scanned the negatives on a Minolta Scan Multi medium format film scanner. The location is the Northern Neck of Virginia, a gentle and quiet farming/timber peninsula between the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers. Considering how close it is to Washington, DC, I was surprised how unspoiled it looked (except right at the coast, where grotesque McMansions loom over the Rappahannock River). There is a wealth of photographic topics such old farmhouses, shops, and small villages along the country roads.
