Shooting in the Redwoods today. 8x10, outdated Arista 125, metered at 64, black and white. 250mm, 6.7 Fujinon lens. 8" bellows extension. I metered for detail in shadows at zone 3. I gave it 2.5 minutes, f64 Made two exposures. Back at the darkroom, I used HC-110, and pushed the developing time to 8.5 minutes at 68 degrees. My negs are thin. I have obviously omitted the reciprocity failure factor to my exposure. I am going to try again tomorrow. Any ideas on exposure time to compensate? I'm thinking 5-6 minutes? Some reciprocity tables say more. I'd appreciate any input. Thanks guys.
