Another RA4 paper negative...
This is a quick shot of my little etching press. It ended up very dark, but same setting as previous shots - I guess I need more watts!
As you guess, I also think it is probably the developer. There is a shot I took a few years ago - all the reds are gone, the carved angel's dress is pink - but is shows as blue. Next time I used the chems, it was dead.
I think temperature also plays a part - but I cant quantify how that works exactly... maybe some colours are less active in lower temps?
sweet still life there.
Very likely temperature does. but I have heard mixed information on this, when looking into temperature variation. the high temp may be just for convenient processing time, and the colors stay well balanced at different temperatures (if you get the processing time right).
Aside: anyone know if c41 chem can be used to dev Ra4 paper? pm me if so.
Yes, c41 Chems can be used to develop ra4 paper

Way over exposed 11x14 RA4 paper negative...
I think the picture looks great and doesn't look blown out or over exposed to me. Maybe I just like pictures of flowers.
11x14 RA4 paper negative
This picture gives a good idea of the RA4 paper latitude - hardly any!
Just a few feet away - you can't see other features in the room.
I found box of old agfa grade 1 paper. Scanned from 18x24cm negative and inverted in photoshop. No preflash, f5,6 and about 2 sec exposure.
