The first X-ray film I got was via Forum members. This is medical stuff. Then I got a huge amount of Foma Indux R4 4x5, this is industrial use film.
It seems to be 6 ASA at best. I am still not...
Are you after normal pictorial contrast?
If yes then maybe you should try 3 ASA, yes that low and develope for 3 minutes.
How much of that Dektol do you have? As our friends have said it is not...
Did anyone buy any of the Foma Indux R4 NDT x-ray film?
I am just wondering if anyone managed to lower it's contrast somewhat.
UK Only. Sorry LabRat.
For the UK residents the minimum order is 2 boxes, thus 100 sheets.
You should e-mail the seller at the address I gave in order to negotiate the price. Especially if you want several boxes of film.
Then you have to add on shipping of course, which is probably going...
Who cares, if it means you can score some film cheaply?
For UK-only postage.
Foma Indux R4 10x12cm in daylight Fomapak. Fifty packets per box.
The film is double-sided and appears somewhat orthochromatic.
Contact: info@HexagonLimited.com. State that...
I regret the seller of the material has indicated UK only.
If anyone from the UK wants any of this film they have indicated a minimum purchase of 2 boxes (100 sheets).
Interested persons ought...
Would any users of 4x5 like to obtain some x-ray film?
It is 10x12cm, so it does not need to be cut down. It is double-sided & apparently somewhat orthochromatic.
The film is in daylight packets,...
I didn't think THAT was possible. Looks like a orange filter on normal film.
Who made Crontex MRF 21 Plus?
Back in 2016 I obtained some from a member of this Forum, and it wasn't the Member I...
andrew: The x-ray films are not sensitive to the warm end of the spectrum. Just about as far as green, but no further. It means the usual filters for B&W film do not apply.
One thing I noticed about using X-ray film was that the speed, such as it was went off as the sun got lower. I assume it is because there is less blue light present.
In this shot of the hawthorn...
What was the effective speed of the film used to take the shot of the Ford flathead V8?
I usually use Rodinal myself, but I have run out at the moment. So I have had to use Fomadon LQN dil 1+10....
In the scene I was using as a test it was a garden on a cloudy day with the corner of a brick building with a white door frame. I don't think either film has any red sensitivity, so that brick is...
If you are photographing a corpse in a shop doorway & it IS starting to move then is was only a drunk sleeping it off. If it was shot and obviously re-animating then you have proof of the beginning...
I was wondering about a lot of aspects of Weegee's technique.
In the back of my copy of Naked City Weegee mentioned that he used Kodak Super Panchro Press Type B. I have no idea about the speed (in...
Just raked through my little black book. I had 10 min 1:50, but that was for 35mm. I just wondered if 4x5 was any different.
I think the Fomapan 200 is about the best film I have at present. The...
In Rodinal it is about 125 ASA, like FP4 Plus. What sort of time is best when diluted at 1:50?
Once I got that right I wanted to pull it 1 stop for 60ASA.
OK. So I have received the film. It is in vacuum-sealed daylight packets sandwiched between two sheets of lead foil.
I am assuming that the film is coated on both sides, because I can't tell any...
Has anyone here used Foma Indux R4? It is intended for NDT use in industry & I know nothing beyond what is on the Foma site.
I have no idea of the sensitivity or the speed when developed to give...
That's what I was told: Exposure changes the shadows and development changes the highlights.
Fomapan 400 was not giving the stated speed on the box, because shadow detail was lacking.
That is a...
It is something that happens with the Fink-Roselieve tank if one tries to develope too many sheets of film at once. However, in this instance I was distracted from my duties.
I usually develope no...
I went to the windmill at Skidby yesterday.
I was going to take a walk along a footpath into the village & back, but I saw this huge bank of lead grey clouds coming.
The last thing I wanted was for...
The film may be 100ASA, but is seems rather grainy. Is that likely to be because it is double-sided coating?
The image is taken from x 30x40mm dental X-ray film used for research purpose in getting...
I mentioned developing in Rodinal 1:200 for 6 minutes which I tried with dental X-ray film exposed in a 35mm camera.With the film developed in a tank I was agitating for the first 45 sec & then 15...
I have never done tray developing. If you knew a film took 6 minutes in whatever juice in a tank, then it would be the same or pretty close for a tray? I am assuming that the different agitation...
It would take a very long time to read through four thousand posts to find those that involve Rodinal and X-ray film.
Those posts I have read mention a 1:200 dilution for 6 minutes or 1:100 for 4...
I got two 8x4.2" trays from an electronics emporium.They are meant to be used when etching printed circuit boards and are flat bottomed.
I can tape a bin bag over the window at night and Bob's yer...
Glass plates were probably thicker than film and you may need to insert something else in the plate holders in order the sheet film is kept totally flat.
I believe that the correct safe-light for...
I received some 4"x4" X-ray film: Crontex MRF 21 Plus & loaded it into some holders. I never heard of the film, so i assume it is double-sided unless a Forum member knows for sure
The person also...
For medical purposes I believe the correct exposure is given thus: Anode voltage & current flow in the X ray tube + time.
Where sensitivity to X radiation is concerned the difference between bands D...
Is dental X-ray film normally double-sided? That is what it looks like. The pocket had no lead foil inside. The film was enclosed in a fold of black paper.
The emulsion/s, if there are coatings...
I sacrificed one piece. The packet (& film) are impressed with a pimple mark in one corner, which shows which side should face the tube.
You wouldn't know which side the emulsion was from the...
If it were elephant size sheets the box would provide a thousand sheets of 4x5.
Seriously: Does anyone know Cantonese, or whatever the script is?
If the packet colours do not follow international...
The first of my X-ray film has arrived... As you can see it was the box of dental films. I only ordered it on the 19th April & it came from China a week later!
Can anyone read the script on the box?...
I have a Fink-Roselieve tank which looks like it can take several formats like 4x5, quarter-plate and 2x3. It is similar to the Yankee, except that the film sheets stand in 'portrait' format, wheras...
I have heard the Aero-Ektar were corrected for working wide open or nearly so and the correction focuses on the red end of the spectrum. I don't know if any of that is true. One of those on a 4x5...
Barnacle: I wouldn't worry about stripping until we have developing technique worked out and have negatives that have a normal contrast you would see in a conventional camera film. I am going to see...
Has anyone made images on D, E or F speed dental film?
I know it is only 30x40mm, but I wondered what the effective speed was.
I am aware of the differences between the speed ratings: F being 50%...
