Images shot with Orthochromatic / Ortho Film / Litho

[plaubel]

Hello,

thistime i m playing with a lithofilm called Rollei ATO 2.1 - any experience here?
It s orthochromatic, with high density, and first results aren t really printable...
I will change developing, Xtol 1+2, to 1+3, it may work.

Thanks,
Ritchie

8X10 Ektascan developed in HC110 1-19. This is a mammography film of about ISO 50 and I develop by inspection with a red safelight. Much less than 1 dollar a sheet.

"This film was used by newspapers until the 70's it was a low cost film"
Actually for until about the middle of the 20th century almost all film available in any size was orthochromatic, Panchromatic films slowly began to come into general use around the time of WWII. I do not remember particular dates, but I do remember the magazine articles debating whether orthochromatic or panchroamtic emulsions were better, much like today's discussions of analog vs digital.

I'm just reading a book, "George Hurrell's Hollywood," and it mentions that pan films came out in 1928. Hurrell had bought a lot of relatively cheap ortho film, and continued using it until mid-1931, when he switched to panchromatic film, which he decided was better for skin tones. The MGM studios, where Hurrell started working in 1930, had already switched over to panchromatic film for stills, but for at least a year Hurrell preferred to stay with the ortho film he was used to.

I love this orthochromatic film together with my Voigtländer Avus 9x12cm
