Tonight development
[posted at 20:16 GMT]    

Today I made another step towards discovering possibilities of fotospeed FD10. I developed Fomapan 200 Creative exposed at 100 ASA in 1:9 dilution for eight minutes at 20C. Looking and negative it is a step in good direction. I will add some detail scans to my experiment page of fomapan 200@100 tomorrow.

Another interesting thing I did tonight was, to fill my Paterson multi reel tank, by adding of Fomapan 200 @ 200 exposed about ten years ago. Now when I see the results I think FD10 is quite good on developing films exposed looong time ago. I develop films from same session of the year 1996 some four years ago with xtol and I must say results where much, much worse.
I also add some very old ORWO 22 film. This was developed with both earlier mentioned films. I was not hoping to get anything, but I did. This time is little bit dense probably time was too long for this film, but I believe I can get some useful scans anyway.

So that was it and now I am going to work a little on my 6x6 scans made by my friend Jacco.
