The 'Blacks' are lacking in 'Richness' probably due to the 'Stand Development Technique' and the Soft Contrast of 400 ASA film.

I guess you are absulutely right

@sheepack:

Why are you using a stand developing?

Sorry, but I can´t understand it, from my side of view it makes no sense when using a film like the Foma Pan 400.

The Foma films has a lower silver content than other films and so it needs a developer and process which takes care that all of it will be used, a stand developing is the worst method for it.

You are loosing much of details and contrast.

I like the picture but with an optimised developing method it will be much better in technical quality.
