    Hi love your vids. I have got hold of a few boxes of very old 4x5 slide film and if they won’t look great as slides when you cross process them in C41 do you process them as normal C41 time and temperature? And also should I expose them based on their age like I would a c41 film Thanks

    Being aware of Rodinal lasting forever, I didn't hesitate to go for my old 10ish year old bottle... looked good, went for 1+25 and ran some HP5 tgrough it, film came out BLANK, no developing action AT ALL, fixer took away everything and only thing I was left was the acetate

    I managed to develop a roll of Agfa Isopan ISS that I found in a camera that I estimate was exposed in the mid 50's. There were images, I wasn't really expecting anything, but there are actual images with identifiable subjects. Which honestly shocked me. Now that was thankfully b&w which tends to age better.

    Votre vidéo est très bien faite, avec les couleurs (gamme) et vos prises de vues ensuite, en 6 X 6 du plus bel effet en diapositive.Vous montrez ensuite des planches contact en 35 mm, mais ici, les couleurs paraissent fanées,vos photos en extérieur sont très biens. Si vous développez votre diapositive comme un négatif couleur,vous aurez un négatif sans le filtre orange, et si vous allez à l'agrandisseur, il faudra sur filtrer en jaune.Un film négatif, développé comme une diapositive, vous aurez une diapo avec le filtre orange, et après tirage sur papier, vous aurez un négatif.Avant la fin de la vidéo, qu'est-ce que vous avez voulu dire avec la planche contact sans vraiment de couleurs et les dominantes sur les photos. On a l'impression d'avoir un bain de négatif qui n'aurait pas atteint la température réelle du révélateur.

    You should red scale the film and cross process in E6 so the film is color balanced a bit better

    Shooting at 800 for everything to me is stupid. I was an Army photographer back in the Neolithic film age. I did mostly photojournalism work and the primary film I used was PlusX 125 ISO. Developed in Microdol-X. It had really fine grain, great tone and dynamic range with good contrast. If it was a darker overcast day. I might use TriX 400 ISO film. We did use a lot of FP4 and some HP5 but it doesn’t give the same results as PlusX with the developer I used. I never pulled film. There was no need for it. If I wanted slower like 25 ISO it was because it was the finest grain. You do this because it has the sharpest image with the most dynamic range and with 35 mm film you can make a poster sized print with little to no grain. And I don’t know what you are metering for but on a sunny day you can shoot 25 ISO film at 1/125 at f/8 or 1/1000 at f/2.8. What lens are you using? Are you using a lens with a maximum aperture of f/3.4 or something. Cause if you are your TTL metering is going to be off by two stops, use a handheld meter. A good one. If you are shooting color film and want a little bit of a pastel look, yes, pull it one maybe two stops tops for artistic sake but not with B&W. 800 ISO has no reciprocity for daylight, unless you use a camera with shutter speeds over 1/4000. Film isn’t digital so you shouldn’t try and shoot it speeds it wasn’t made for. Especially since there are film speeds made in that ISO. In the past TriX was rated at 200, and some cameras only went up to 1/500. And the standard film used was 64 ISO. Use the slowest film for the lighting conditions for best results, I usually start at 100 ISO for daylight, but will go for 25 to 64, if I want more reciprocity. I use 400 and higher only for lower lighting conditions, if I don’t use a flash.

    I know I'm over 3 years late to the party and you probably won't see this, but... Maybe two of my questions can be answered at once with this suggestion if the rolls are still waiting on ideas... they probably aren't. Is it possible to do bleach bypass in E6? Or is that just a C41 thing? If you can, my, probably ridiculous, idea is to shoot it red scale and then cross process it in E6 with bleach bypass if possible... I think my punctuation in that sentence was correct. Weird sentence to write out.

  • @atticdarkroom
    @atticdarkroom15 күн бұрын

    Technically it's possible. But the problem is with the E6 process silver is left on the entire frame. So if you skip the bleach step you're left with a thick, nearly totally opaque, layer of silver, making the film pretty much unusable. The image would be developed, but just unviewable.

  • @saulekaravirs6585
    @saulekaravirs658515 күн бұрын

    @@atticdarkroom That is quite interesting. I had been wondering if it would do the same thing in E6 that it does to C41 with adding contrast and reducing color. But with what you say, E6 sounds like it is somewhere between color and BW. Now I guess the same thing would happen if you were to bleach bypass a BW process as that also leaves silver behind normally. Also, I just discovered your channel last week and have been binging it after work. Your very entertaining videos have pushed me into wanting to develop my own film. There is so much cool stuff you can do. Keep up the hard work, your videos are awesome.

    This tracks with my experience with expired Lucky color. I shot three rolls from three different sources and they ranged from "completely unusable" to "almost not terrible". Plus two of them had fungus growing in the emulsion, which I only ever experienced with badly stored film from the 1970s before.

My dark slide was also scratched due to the crank as well. Manual ejection for me is good so I could be creative with multi exposure

    I found an unopened bottle of Orwo R09 from the late 80s (the East German equivalent of Rodinal, supposedly using an older formula) in the attic last year. It's been sitting there for over 30 years, going through big temperature changes in all this time and... it's fine. Somehow doesn't even have any solids on the bottom of the bottle as far as I can tell. The concentrate is pretty much black but seemed to work perfectly well on the short test I've done, I really should do more with it.

    use adox adotech 4 for better contrast (its used for CMS 20) or if you want to push process, use paper developer like dektol, interesting that it doesn't seem to have anti-halation by the translucency of it but outdoors that ortho looks really crisp!

    Eterna RDS 4791 is the only "cinema" film that Fuji still carries as of 2024 (granted... it's a technical separation film, but still). I'm guessing you have to order it in bulk directly from Fuji, since I've never seen it at B&H or other places. I am curious if Fuji produces the film themselves in their Ashigara plant or if someone else produces it for them. Have thought about buying some off of ebay... but I didn't realize that it was orthochromatic. Still, a good looking film -- like an Ortho version of Fuji Acros.

  • @75cafexs

    The color is most likely from staining from Rodinal. This was a copy film and will likely have a clear, or damn near clear (so like suuuuuuuuper light grey) that it won't really be that noticeable. Good normal speed films for reversal would be to Rollei Retro films (80s and SuperPan 200) since they're on a completely clear base. The downside to clear base films (and thin emulsion archival films like the one in the video) is light piping.
