Still learning to use X-ray film this is an old water tower on the Hume Hwy near Euroa.
Kodak MXG X-Ray film cut to 8x10 Developed in Rodinal 1:200 6min in rotary processor.
Scan and PS tone
SMBooth, how are you able to rotary process xray film? Isn't there emulsion on both sides, or is this one a single side coating?
Re: Images shot on X-ray film
Ok, I have to ask, whats the line in the middle all about? I do like the tonality of whats going on here.

Not the best developing job I'm afraid.

Andrew, I just use a unicolor drum and roller which takes 4 4x5 or 1 8x10. Just roll it up and carefully place it into the drum , the edge catches on one of the ribs which I assume stops it from moving around to much. When developing is finished I roll the sheet inwards so it does not hit the side of the drum when its draw out. So far this has worked out OK, the most scratches I got was from trying to get the film out of the holder with short finger nails because I cut the film at 240mm not 250mm and it slides back and forth.
Re: Images shot on X-ray film
From a session with some friends to use as promo material for a CD.
Green x-ray 8x10 (CXSOnline) shot at iso 50 with a Verito. Skin on zone 6.5
Tray developed, Dektol 1:10 for 2.5 minutes.
One side stripped with Clorox.
Scanned and P.S. processing. (I could never get the final look with my meager wet darkroom skills, but now that it gets darker earlier I may try.)

Re: Images shot on X-ray film
I've also developed x-ray in PMKPyro in a Uniroller -- Iso 50-80, 10 minutes. I don't worry about the 'other' side because I then strip that side with Clorox. Very unscientific.

Nice stuff. Do you know Monica from Cranford? If so, give her my regards.
Re: Images shot on X-ray film
Still playing around with MXG, this shoot at sunset was about 1 sec at f11 (ISO25) with swing on 8x10. No filter and developed in Rodinal 1:200 for 6min I did get some rub marks from the drum but cloned out while toning in PS.

The more I look at this image the more I like it notwithstanding the uneven development which was probably the result of lining the tray with shrink wrap. In fact the uneven development seems to add to it's "antique" look: It looks like it was taken in the 19th century.
