Just found out about this Kickstarter about a new ISO 800 tungsten-balanced film: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cinestill/cinestill-medium-format-film Apparently there's already a 35mm version. Anybody tried it?

I've had a look on Flickr and most people are dumb and shooting it during the day in natural light, which totally defeats the point of this expensive as gently caress film. All the promo shots look good and anything shot under fluorescent looks great from what I've seen

my friend works with a guy who shoots it in 120. He has some really nice examples. You can find him on Flickr as sandyphimester Actually it looks like he's posted more on Instagram under the same name BANME.sh fucked around with this message at 02:40 on Oct 10, 2014 |

So my father has handed me his speed graflex and a six sheet holder and told me to load it so we can try it out tomorrow. I figured out that part already but how the hell do you develop sheet film?

If you're going to do it on even a semi-regular basis, a mod54 would be a really good investment. It's fairly easy to load one after a bit of practise and you'll be able to develop all six sheets at once.

Some people have had issues with their mod54 holders. Mostly some weird marks from the corner of the film holder in areas of continuous tone. If you do get one be extra gentle on agitation, that seems to help.

Probably my last MF "macro", since I sold the macro rails to a friend. It was an interesting experience to shoot MF macro nonetheless, albeit sometimes quite frustrating. Leaves at Dell Lane by alkanphel, on Flickr

For my self probably not, since this camera was a bitch to use. if my dad goes that route will it fit into a super system 4 tank or is that too small?

It was rarely a problem for me, but when it was, it was so infuriating to try to deal with that I switched to the Jobo system.

I find it so weird, I use the same developer, same dilutions, same times, same agitation method, yet still intermittently sometimes I get those same uneven marks as you, Mr.BA. It makes me loving terrified of developing in the fear I'll destroy one of the better photos from a recent outing.

Oh there's a bitch in this post, but it's you. Cowboy up and shoot LF. (feeling superior to miniature format shooters is the only thing that keeps LF bros from being intensely suicidal)

Dunk tanks and hangers are the beez neez, I've been super happy with the evenness of the development of my DIY setup. Gotta fix the light leak in the camera back though

Pros/cons of the Mod54 versus taco development? I think you could probably get 3-4 sheets into a tank even without the reels, and it sounds like it might be more even. I've got Pompous Rhombus' old Mod54 tanks and reels sitting around, just haven't had the financial fortitude to spring for more film at the moment. Especially given that I still have a bunch of 120 kicking around.

I have never successfully don't the taco method without leaving a mark of some kind on the film. It's not a big deal and easily spotted out in post but I would rather do 4x5 via mod54 since the surge marks are super rare for me.

I really love how little I have to use for rotary development. My first purchase after deciding I didn't like the MOD54 was a Jobo 2560 and 2509n reels - so 12 sheets with 750mL. Now I have the Jobo 3010 - 10 sheets with 300mL

Can I ask you and MrBlandAverage how you're both doing your agitation? When I'm trying to be gentle I usually pick the tank straight up about an inch, tilt it about 15 degrees, then gently swirl the base so it makes a cone shape. I dunno how well that will work with a double-reel setup though.

Paul MaudDib posted:Can I ask you and MrBlandAverage how you're both doing your agitation? If you're asking about the MOD54, I was doing two 90 degree rotations (each on a different axis) each minute, but I took 5-10 seconds to do each rotation to avoid having the sheets dislodged by liquid moving too quickly. With the Jobo tanks I'm doing continuous rotation (I have a CPP2).

Now I have the Jobo 3010 - 10 sheets with 300mL The thing to watch here is probably total chemical volume - for example HC-110 you need 6ml of chemical per roll of film, no matter what volume of diluted solution that works out to. 10 sheets is a lot of surface area for 300ml of any developer, I'd worry that you'd deplete the chemicals in the tank. But I guess if it works then don't change it. Might be accounted for by your time/temp. Paul MaudDib fucked around with this message at 18:44 on Oct 13, 2014 |

That roll of 135-36 that supposedly needs 6mL is the same surface area as 4 sheets of 4x5, which suggests a minimum of 15mL of HC-110 syrup for 10 sheets. However, I've never had a problem using dilution H and I always end up with perfectly even, low-contrast negatives. Whenever I do use a higher dilution, I tend to use a little more solution, up to 450mL (7mL syrup). I think the continuous rotation probably also makes a big difference, and I use the same dev times as for inversion, as opposed to shortening my times by 15%.

Now I have the Jobo 3010 - 10 sheets with 300mL Multiply your Jobo numbers by 10, about 3lt to fill the tank, but I tend to develop with 1:100 Rodinal. With 1:100 X-ray film will develop in around 5-6mins, and the tank can do 4 sheets of 8x10 at once or 16 4x5s. I've been looking at doing dry plates for a while and the hangers would be perfect for processing them, so there is that added flexibility with the high volume system.
