beautiful Tri! X-ray film and great lenses and beautiful models rock!
I think you nail it! I was going to suggest 1/2 stop but thought it was getting too picky. It sure did work didn't it. That's was the garden scene, I thought a portrait would be just a slight depth and it's very nice for the model.
Thanks Curt and Jim. The garden shots was the test shots in order to know the lens DOF characteristic . I hope it will pleased your eyes at 1/2 stop down.

So much great news to report!
I'll list it in the sequential order that it happened today.
#1. I was approved to start doing a documentary of the Daegu Monorail construction.
#2. I stopped by to buy some 7x17 x-ray today. I was a little bit worried about buying film that might just go to waist. I asked the lady the cost, and she said it would be more expensive than the 8x10 I bought last time. I was quoted $60 for a box of 100 sheets. I kept my smile inside, knowing that 100 sheets of Ilford in 7x17 could cost me near $1000. I began to ask the lady if she knew the exact size of the film, because I was worried it would work in my holder. So she started talking about expired film - that the hospitals will not use. I asked if I could buy it and she said it's not usually for sale, even though it should function as normal. So I said, I'd like it buy it if I could. She wasn't sure if she could sell it to me so she called her boss. The boss said, just give it to him. My jaw dropped to the bottom of the floor, but I tried to keep the excitement in. I then asked about any other expired film and got a box of 8x10 as well. Whoot! Two boxes of free xray film! To sweeten the deal this is Fuji HR-U film vs. Fuji HR-A that I usually use. HR-U film, I guess is the same film but has more silver in it making it more expensive. I don't guess anyone has used HR-U film?
#3. Come back and cross my fingers that this film is going to work in my new S&S holders. Yes!!! It's a tight fit, but just slides in perfectly.
#4. Haven't decided which lenses to use on 7x17. I've got 4 that have potential. 12" Dagor in shutter, 14" Commercial Ektar in shutter, 260mm Konica Hexanon GRII (barrel), and an 8x10 B&L Protar V (163mm in barrel). Picked up some black foam board and made a makeshift lensboard for the 260mm Konica Hexanon GRII. Looks like it will cover infinity at F9! Going to start doing some texts tomorrow to make sure my ISO is 160 like the HR-A was and developing times are sufficant in Rodinal 1:50 for around 3-4 min.
I haven't decided wether I'll use x-ray 8x10 and 7x17 or 5x7 FP4+ for the Monorail project. Maybe I'll mix it up. The monorail opens Dec. 2014, I'm thinking about an exhibition opening that would coinside with the Monorail opening.
