    all your recent B&Ws look like delta 1. Meaning you’re pushing the heck out of your films. asa 3200 @ 12800? ;-)

    believe or not, they are 400@1600… its just my lack of darkroom skills probably – it was waaay easier to scan pushed ones :-P On the other hand, they are merely proofs… I’d spend considerably more time on a final print, dodging&burning.

  8. » Ivan:

    What grad do you use?
    I as well have next to 0 experience in the dark room, but a good deal there of in developing film. When I push “old” emulsions like APX, TriX, HP5 to 1600, they usually tend to look just like a “native” 1600 film (neopan 1600 for ex.), and the prints tend to be far less contrasty than yours.

    But I use grad 2.

    I use 3,5 to 5, depending on the scene.. maybe I’m underdeveloping…

    (Fri 18/12/09, 7:59 am)

     

  10. » Ivan:

    try using 2 and thoroughly developing the paper(!).
    This makes the shadows deep, but does not mess with contrast, nor the midtones.

    I dont think you’re underdeveloping – shadows seem to have enough detail.

  11. » alkos:

    I am developing paper to completion… on the other hand, I like this look :-P It presents much better on the print itself :-)
