Use of X-ray film: technical discussion with example images

[Andrew O'Neill]

The DR is considerably lower than a negative for carbon transfer... interesting.

[Andrew O'Neill]

Raffay, are you tray developing, hangers... ? I ask because those marks on the right-hand side seem to be from the development process.

[Raffay]

Hi, I am developing in a tank.

[Andrew O'Neill]

What tank?

[Raffay]

FR tank 1.5 litres



Cheers

Do you agitate by inversion?

[Andrew O'Neill]

Whoa ya... I just noticed the HX on the negative!! Is that on all of them??

[Andrew O'Neill]

I also like how this film renders green. The wheel barrow is dark green but is rendered quite light here.

I have used that tank before. "Marks" on the sides of the image is due to over development on the edges / under development in the center because you can't invert that tank since it is not sealed. All you can do is rock/slosh it.

[Raffay]

No I agitate by just turning it, as it is not sealed, and if I invert then it will spill. Yes the HX is on all of them, and as pointed out earlier the safelight wasn't safe and hence the film got exposed while I was cutting it.
