Battle for contrast :D

I cant speak for Fuji UM-MA, or AD-M. BUT...I have had my best luck to date on Kodak X-sight (asa 100) with Rodinol at 1:200, 68 degrees and a 30 minute semi stand development.
Hopefully the attached file will come through...Attachment 206677
Busch 4x5 Pressman with 135mm Raptar at f22 and 1/10th second.
Overcast day of course.....I can never get the contrast tamed enough when its sunny.:(
My first attempt at using xray film, just a quick test. It's on Carestream MXG, shot 8x10 (cropped here) at ISO 100, developed in PQ Universal by inspection. This is a scan with some tonal adjustements, edge burning and toning applied. Will try to contact print it later.

I have loaded 5x7 and 18x24cm holders with MINR but have not tested as of yet.
My cameras are old and have not been used for a while. I have been cleaning and repairing them, ready to take out soon.
Will post some results soon as I have time.

Half speed green, unsure of brand. Rating it at 5 to 10 and developing for 12mins in D-76 diluted 1:3. I was really struggling with exposures until I realized 6 mins in the soup was way to short! Lens is a Cooke series II in a compound shutter (prior to the soft focus). Overcast and breezy day 2 sec@4.5 hopefully all the sheets are in this good of shape. Expired in 2011.
Test Fuji HR-U in KGB-20 (homemade clone HC-110), dilution "F". 4x5, exp. as 200 E.I. Manual tray dev-t 3 min.
