Been a little quiet here lately in the ol' F76 thread. But fear now as I am back on the case. I have a whole pile of Foma 400 to deal with so here we go; pulling Foma 400 back a stop.
I've read rumors that Foma 400 is really approx. ISO 250 in actuality. So I got out my old Ricoh Singlex TLS, set the ISO dial to 200, and figured I would take 15% off of the normal Foma 400 development times to see how this would come out. It's not bad at all; here are a couple shots;
That's 6 minutes and 45 seconds in 1+9 concentrated F76. Somewhat overcast day with a lot of snow so plenty of light. Took this with my Takumar 55 f2.
This one took seconds; I used a cable release, and shot this with a Tamron 17mm Adaptall-2.
I think this is fairly spot on, overall. Some shots come out a bit under-developed but others seemed slightly over. I'll spare you all the picture I took of the cat as it's not that well composed or focused; the fur and general look of the picture seems pretty much spot on. Having another camera to do odd-ball stuff like this is great.
