I've a roll of the above which I shot at 80iso. Foma at box speed should be developed in Rodinal at 1:50 for 7 mins.

Any estimatation on how long I should develope to pull the film 1/3 of a stop?

I can't find anything to help you, Martin. I would probably go with 6.5
minutes.

Agree. I usually do -20% (as starting point) for a full stop pull so we are there: 6,5'.

Cheers, Marty.

6:30 sounds good so I'll give that a whirl and report back in a bit.

Thanks

If it goes badly thank gawd there's a pond called the "Atlantic Ocean"
between us--orthopedic surgery is costly. Laughing

Seriously, do post your results, been thinking about jumping on the Rodinal
(or me-to Foma) bandwagon for full stand developing. Less babysitting than
semi-stand which I have to do with the HC-110.

Lol!

The negs look ok but I didn't have time to scan last night. I'll put a few up when I get home.

Fomapan 100 (shot at 80). Praktica MTL50 and I think Tamron 90. No PP just crop and high pass sharpen.

Not the best shot of the roll but one I'm not going to spend any time on.

I'd be pleased with this, nice exposure and moderate grain.

Fine grain and nice tones. I think this is at least as good as FP4. It curls a lot though.

Martin, got any other goodies on the roll? The tree is nice *yawn* but I
was hoping to see more. Wink Smile

Yeah, the Foma 100 curls on me, too, but gives good results for cheap.
And you can shoot it at 400 (Nesster did, and I think Freestyle states
this can be done). I won't buy any more Foma 400 since it can't be
pushed anyway, and the grain is tighter with the 100. That being said,
I still have a bunch of Foma 400 and Arista 400 in 120 to shoot up. :-/

The contrast looks nice.

I'm surrounded by trees. They are my friends & family. Laughing

Some others in the B&W galleries may be more interesting.

Excellent work, Martin, after seeing the images in the BW section, I think
6.5 minutes was the sweet spot on the dial.
