Do you know how many definitive answers there are on the internet regarding this? None at all
I have a bulk roll of Rollei retro 400s and I had a roll in my Ricoh 500RF but I wasn't sure what speed I was shooting it at. I was pretty sure it was 400 but not totally confident, so stand it was. I have stand developed this film in Rodinal and its very nice but as the film is very contrasty, I wanted to try hc110 to see how it went. Not one to waste developer, I quickly made and shot a test roll of retro at 200 in my Zeiss contaflex (testing the film @200, the camera and the developer, triple whammy). The method was
HC110 dilution G (1:119), 6ml dev to 714ml water at 20°c
5 mins prewash to clear the purple halation layer then 60 mins in the developer. Agitation was constant for the first 30secs then 2 agitations at 2, 4, 8, 16, & 32 minutes as per the caffenol cookbook.
Water stop bath, 5 mins fix, ilford wash method.
When I first looked at the leader it was a bit grey but the negatives look rather nice. I will scan them in a few hours and will post them here, but first, these are the negatives. The top one is shot at 200 and the bottom at 400
