As I go further through this Dave Vestal book, I am realizing what mistakes
I have made when doing this
Fuji Neopan 1600
test. As you may remember, before bathroom strikes I was about to
publish some test of Fuji Across 100. Now I need to do some more tests and
prints to be really objective and gain as much as possible from it.
The thing I have noticed by reading the book is that David Vestal suggest
to make prints of each exposed negative as good as possible and even make
one print for best highlights and one for best shadow details. So he try to
get as much as possible from each, even wrongly exposed, negative. When I
was doing my Fuji Neopan 1600 test I gave to each negative the same
exposure, at least that is what I remember. What I know for sure I didn't
print the pictures. So I have something to fix here.
Back to Fuji Across 100. After all readings I have done and some mails I
have received I have bought Rodinal today. I know you maybe smiling another
developer and if you could know, as you can't, that I do not like Rodinal.
It is only developer I am explicitly ignoring and today I have bought it.
Anyway I have also received my package with 30.5 meter of Fomapan 100 . So
there is a plenty of work and fun in front of me.
