Neil 1:50 Rodinal may be too strong, too. Different films but I had better results with 1:100.

Mark, I found 100:1 too thin. I posted some other 50:1 developed shots upthread on the eighth of June.

Wollensak Rochester Voltas F8 lens (1912), Improved Seneca View Camera (1906), 5x7, AGFA X-ray, Blue film, I shot as ISO 100, (f5.6, 1/25) then I run it through a tray of X-ray film T2 developer (diluted 3 times) for just one minutes. The film was transferred to the water tray and after fix for 5 min. After fixation film was washed for 10-15 minutes in running water.
Jim:
Did you ever get a reply from ZZ or find additional sheets with the line in your box?
Thanks.
Nice work Gene!
I have been messing with green sensitive x-ray film

Yes, I did get a reply from them right away. They were very concerned. It seems like there was something in the bellows of the camera from the move. I told them and they said if I had any further problems to let them know. Great C/S. It was the owner that I spoke with.Quote:

It seems like that's what's been going on. Water is around 83 F right now (later summer here) and my Ektscan development times drop to about 5 minutes and it seems like grain and contrast are going up. Can't measure either one, but it seems like it. Been using pyrocat HD either 2:2:100 or 1:1:100.
Perseids 2016
210mm lens at f5.6
1 hour exposure on 13x18cm Agfa X-Ray film
Tray developed by inspection
Scan, finished in PS
This lens, on this format, produces a field of view that is a bit too tight for this particular purpose.
I saw at least 5 rather big meteors right outside the confines of this frame.
A wider lens would have caught them for sure.
Next time.
Yet, if you look closely, you can see a couple of tiny dust particles burning upon entering the atmosphere.
