Green X-ray film is a milder orthochromatic film than Ektascan, maybe, but Ektascan is backed with an anti-halation layer which comes off during development. Don't be surprised by this variation of various films to light. Pan film also is. There used to be 3 different Pan films in their recording of light. Pan-A, B, C. Now there is only one Type A pan film - Fuji Acros. Everything else is Type C which is really over-corrected for red light.
Wouod you be willing to post more about this in the "x-ray images and examples" thread which is more for discussion as opposed to this one that's about image sharing? Or create a new thread about the various pan films, this is interesting and I would be interested to learn more. I always knew that Acros was sensitive somehow differently than other pan films which is why I try and use it exclusively for my landscape work, but also for modeling work sometimes, has a different look I like a lot. Anyway if you wouldn't mind posting more info about this elsewhere that would be awesome!
Be well,

behind the cranes on the top right is the flightpath to Adelaide airport hence the line and intermittent flashes.

Re: Images shot on X-ray film
Jason, just wanted to say that I have really enjoyed your entire series of soft-focus trees in snow. You have found really nice images in an area I suspect I might have hiked through without even taking the camera out of the backpack.

Yesterday was a contact day to me...

DIY monorail camera, 0.5mm pinhole, about 140mm focal length,
12x18 cm Primax RTG-G x-rayfilm EI50, RO9 1:100 18C/12min, contacted (60s).
The redwood wall is pretty dark on film.

DIY monorail camera, unknown 210/f9 lens @f11/2s,
12x18 cm Primax RTG-G x-rayfilm EI50, RO9 1:100 18C/12min, contacted.
I think my groundglass is not in right place. The camera has a bit backfocused. It is must be correcting. Anyway my DIY monorail camera is working well...

Thanks Peter.
I live nearby and visit there regularly for the past five or so years, but just found this spot in the fall of last year. There's some thick woods (and deep snow) hiding the beauty from those in a hurry.

I like the dimension marks which would aid the focusing, I have a set of oak timber set to
build a camera but got lazy as I was pursuing a UNI degree which took up all my time.
I bought all the components from Jon Shui and put the Kodak 2D together, 100 sheets of
film later I am getting this x-ray film to a almost expected result rather than wonder what I will
get with this shot.I have 100 sheets of 11X14 in the freezer so a camera of this size may be on the drawing board.
