Hi Angus,
I use a water rinse as stop and Kodak fixer. I also use Kodak HypoClear.

Posted this on the current portrait thread, but it fits here, too. Second shot on Ektascan. Developed in HC-110 dil H, 6:10 at 20C, rotary with a Beseler print drum on a Uniroller.

Images were a little hot, whether due to a little over exposure or over developing, but fully scannable. Grain is almost non-existent, at least compared to the Arista.EDU I'm used to shooting. Emulsion is way soft when wet; dry it seems fairly robust.
Another view but through magnifying glass, same film. I used a piece of black construction paper with a large hole.
Bananas.
Shot on plain ol' green cxs film. ISO 50 - dev in D23 2-bath.

Excellent! Interesting how the green lat film rendered the yellow skin...
Another Ektascan/Adonal test. Not liking this combination yet. 14" f/6 Petzval on 8x10 Ektascan BR/A. Adonal 1:110 6:15 at 20C.

Yeah, between PS and flickr it got a little too sharpened. The image required quite a bit of work to bring the contrast back down to a usable range. More than an equivalent shot on arista would have, and much more than similar shots of my daughter (above) did on this film in HC-110. More playing to do, but I'm not convinced of the combo yet.
