Re: Images shot on X-ray film
I shot a previous version August 11th with Costco C41 processing, I present this image just to show I didn't exactly copy you Sergei, then I saw your doll and I had to do it again in LF. Of course I will be using Plastica for more practice.
Check the EXIF. I need a lot of practice.

Randy - i knew you werent :) If i may add suggestion - dont fall into typical LF shooter trap (i know, its hard to adjust thin DOF, but its doable) - dont do head-on shots of her.. Turn her a bit.
Re: Images shot on X-ray film
LOL, that can mean 2 things! I do plan to turn her head and she needs new clothes. Thanks for the advice!
Also, right now I am going to use sharp lenses in focus, if I can...
Been very busy building my dream darkroom, soon I will share pics of that. I now have 750 sq ft of total blackout, my entire small storefront! Not easy with south windows.

Re: Images shot on X-ray film
Good luck with dark room. My back and bellows for ulf camera is finally ready and slowly drifting towards me in parcel, so at some point i am going to fight very peculiar battle of trying to figure out if i can use 14x17 taped in holder ;) Its a shame there is no 20x24 xray ;)
Re: Images shot on X-ray film
This is Michael Boruch, he taught me B&W analog photography 15 years ago for one college semester. At that time I had no darkroom experience and even now have only recently set up a darkroom. During his class I bought Nikon N70 and Nikon Coolpix 100 and did all assignments with both cameras. http://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/coolpix/others/100/ At that time there were no cell phone cameras and I could take digital pics with no one noticing. I fell in love with digital and wasted a lot of time and money.
Michael and I had no contact for 15 years, the other day he stopped by for a quick 6 hour visit. We talked and talked. He still teaches college photography.
Shot with chipped grey paint Ansco Studio 8x10 and Semi-Centennial stand, I got it almost free from a moldy basement, perfect bellows! Bad paint. My favorite rig.

Re: Images shot on X-ray film
I've been most impressed by many of the X-Ray shots here. Unfortunately, I only shoot 4x5 so I guess some cutting might be involved. Nice shot and tones.
Re: Images shot on X-ray film
I cut 7x17 to 5x7 which takes only one 4-15/16 cut per piece, 3 pieces to each film, thus getting 300 5x7 pieces of film for $60 delivered.

Re: Images shot on X-ray film
Hi Randy, Off the wall question. I would like to develop some 8x10 blue sens. X-ray film in 10x12 trays. Approx. how many sheets of film would you say I can develop before I have to replenish my developer? I'll be using Rodinal @ 1:100 mixture. Thanks from the other Randy guy from Seattle Wash.
Re: Images shot on X-ray film
I did 4 Sheets of Kodak CSG 5x7 in 1 liter, 1-100 R09 and 2 sheets 8x10 same film in fresh batch. I did them 2 sheets at a time in 10x12 trays with grooves and I see no exhaustion or groove streaks.
I think 10 ML of R09 is cheap enough to use for 2 sheets, Sergei is the one I follow. If you go back he lists his results consistently with his experiments.
Soon I will try HC 110, just because I want to see how it does on roll film. I do not like R09 with roll film.

Re: Images shot on X-ray film
I've followed this thread but gleaned little technical info. A lot of displays and complimenting. Can somebody please give me an idea of a starting developing time for Fuji HRT green in D-76? Thanks--HTF
