Aaron, I'll do one of two things... ;-) Either I'll start developing the film myself as per your suggestion, or I'll let Downtown Camera tell their external lab (Bayview), to switch the developer their using for my negs. :-)
Hence the reason for pulling back on the film. http://www.usefilm.com/showphoto.php?id=11234 is a link to a shot taken with the Neopan @ 800 but developed as though it's 1600. Once again, having to go to an external lab, I can only over expose or under expose during a shot to get the "push" or "pull" affect since the lab's going to develop as per film instructions. Mind you, they probably are a Kodak lab anyway, so it's probably as you said, being developed in T-max. Cheers, Dave -----Original Message----- Aaron wrote: Dave, both you and Paul are getting better results at 1600 because you're souping the film in T-Max. Go to Ilford Microphen or DD-X and it kicks ass at 3200. I can't imagine what you've done to Neopan 1600 to make it a slower film...at 1600, it has a processing time of less than three minutes in Studional, one of the shortest I've ever seen. Unless, of course, you're processing it in T-Max. ;) Paul, glad you liked the film. I was getting all excited when you posted that you were going to shoot window light portraits with it, because it totally rocks in that situation. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
