This is Efke 50, expired last September and was short-filmed, for want of
a better expression. This is the 2nd frame with cut off corner and first frame
had just a small amount of image showing on the strip of film that was cut
off with the tape. Anyhoo, can't say as I'm impressed with this combo:
4 mins each bath, 20C, Mamiyaflex C2, 2.8/80 Sekor lens
Diafine and TriX 400 work well, though, a flickr fave:
He used a 'blad 500C/M with no doubt a Zeiss lens. |

Martin, the 2nd image using TriX is not mine, but agree, it's a great
image. The scuzzy first one with Efke is mine. |

I was hoping for results like this with Efke 50 and Diafine. This is from a
Ricohflex Dia L that is now in a land far away, Thornton's 2-Bath:
Efke 50, 3 mins each bath, 20C
I used a water stop, not acid bath like with the Thornton's, trying to figure
why the results are not khorosho. Shee-yott. |

Try dev'ing at 25 - 26 degrees. I think 20 is a bit too cool for diafine. You'll get a bit more contrast then I think. _________________ Film... and sometimes SD14, 5D2 and some other suff! |

Attila, thanks, fully agree about the 2nd picture.
Xpres, thanks, will give it a try on next roll. There seems to be some
disparity even when same film, TriX:
Mamiya 645
The guy who took this must have dev'd at 20C with Diafine. |

I've never tried Diafine. The idea of one time for all films is trippy to me. How can you control pushing or holding back? Can you? Where is Sevo? |

Yeah, I have trouble wrapping my mind around pushing TriX to 1600 and
using the same dev times, too. |
