Notes from 20th May 2004
[posted at 10:00 GMT]    

I have just finished scanning of film from yesterday Fuji Neopan Across 100 developed in Paterson Aculux 2 1:9 for 12 minutes. It seems like shadows do not have any details and highlights are just about to be blowed. So I need to adjust time and agitation. I did first minute 15 sec non-stop inversions and than every whole minute one inversion in 5 sec. It seems that I need to make even less agitation to avoid blowing highlights but increase a time little to get shadows time to develop.
Or the other option overexposed a film little and shorten the time, while keeping same agitation.
