a couple of sheets of 8x10 with my early prototype Gibellini and a 355mm G-Claron. The film was Catlabs X 80, exposed closer to 50 and developed in HC110 for 9 minutes. One of the sheets was actually two test exposures with my half darkslide in place creating 2 4x10 inages. That worked pretty well, but I need to trim the half slide down a little.

Never saw the S.Ponture in real life - quite a sleekie!
 
Canon EOS-3, Vision 3 250D, home developed. Used the kodak recipe for remjet remover, processed using FPP ECN2/C-41 kit.
 
Yesterday: Hasselblad Flexbody with a Distagon C 50mm T* and HP5+ with orange and green-yellow filters, on location, will be developed in FX-55 this weekend.

For the Distagon it is a kind of a first test as I bought it, used, a week ago (to replace the one that 'vanished'), and for the FX-55 it's a first too.

Yesterday I tried 10 frames (I bulk load) of Fomapan 400, pushed to 800, in the new Voightländer Vito CL. The film was developed in Caffenol.
 
- Topcon 35-L w/ Topcor 44mm f/2
- Fuji Pro400H (Expired in July 2009) @ ASA 100
- Processed in my Paterson System 4 for about 3:45 at 102F with my 41 month old batch of Unicolor C-41.
- 9 minutes in Blix at about 98F
- 2 Minutes in Kodak Final Rinse

Note:
I never noticed that I had reached the end of the roll and kept shooting an extra 10 shots... That last frame is going to be interesting.
 
Zenza Bronica S2a, Nikkor-P 75mm f2.8 with the Model E back with Tmax 100 expired in 2001, lab processed in Clayton F76. Testing out the back as it was a recent Ebay purchase from Japan and I want to make sure it’s working correctly.

Kodak Reflex 1A, HP5+ @ EI800 Developed in Ilfosol 3. The negatives are drying, but from what I can see, the camera and film combo looks great. This was a first time test run for the camera. I'll scan tomorrow and see what I've got.

Love the Robot's square 24X24 negatives.

Another in that format is the Zeiss Ikon Tenax II, with a Carl Zeiss Jena 4cm f/2 Sonnar lens. Zeiss made it for only a few years in the late 1930s so they are hard to come by. I have one in a box somewhere -- one of those odd finds that landed on my doorstep many years ago. The build is excellent, if you want to shoot 24mm squares.
 
Minolta 807si, Minolta 24-105mm, Fuji Superia 400, commercial development.
 
Agfa Clack, Ilford FP4 Plus (120), developed at home, B&W reversal, Kodak HC-110 Dil. B 1:31, 12:00 mins. @ 20° C, using hydrogen peroxide (3%) and white vinegar @ 39° C as bleach, JOBO CPE2 Plus, JOBO 1520 tank. There are images but very dark. I think I need to extend the 1st developer.
