Hi all!
I know that this is an odd request, but if anyone wants to try some pretty off-the-wall film basically for free, this is your chance!
I recently got a very large roll of Kodak 2465 Microfilm, and was wondering if anyone would be willing to test some of it in various developers to see how it behaves. I do plan to sell this film later on, though I won’t be charging much for it since it’s ridiculously cheap. Basically just my time and postage.
It is an extra contrasty blue-green sensitive stock. I’ve gotten good, if contrasty. results at around EI 12-25 in HC-110 B, and I plan to try it in HC-110 H and Rodinol 1:50 as well to see if I can get the contrast down a bit. It didn’t work very well in H&W control though, which was surprising.
If anyone within the US wants to try this film, I’ll send you a couple of rolls of 120 or a few sheets of 4x5, for free (although $5-10 for postage would be nice), in exchange for sharing your results with me so I can start to compile a development time chart.
If anyone is interested, definitely let me know and I’ll write your name down and send you film when I have the time to make some.
Thanks!
