Post your B&W Film shots

Realising just how much Rodinal I have stuffed into the back of the chemistry fridge, I decided I had better start using it up, so I did today's roll of Pan F in it at 11 minutes in 1+ 50.

They actually still have my negatives. Haven't been back to pick them up. I've been wanting to check if they have the new Bergger Pancro, so this will be a good excuse to make it over there.

Oh, yeah, and when I make a rare appearance at Blue Moon, some of the help even recognize me.

If so, they're probably one of the few in North America who have it. Last time I checked, my local shop hadn't even been able to get a response when they inquired about it.

I took it to a lab, Blue Moon Camera. Not sure what they used. But they sell and shoot JCH, so I figure they know how to handle it.

Did they scan it too? 'Cause their scanner might not have been recalibrated for the jch's 'unusual' characteristics (judging by go26r's images and comments, and your own results).

I had a roll of acros 400 dev+scanned by a local lab (TO Image Works), when I picked it up the lab tech told me it had been overexposed by 4-5 stops, and the scans appeared to show that, but the vast majority, shot in hard midday sun, came out fine in PP (I use the same metering for 400 color negs and intentionally overexpose by 1-2 stops):

SP supertak 50/1.4 Acros 400, likely f8|11 1/250 (my default for 400 in direct sunlight)

Yes, Blue Moon did the scanning too. Another good reason to stop by and have a chat. I really wanted to like JCH, but like go26r said, it's not cheap and HP5+ suits me just fine.

You have a chemistry fridge? I've always wanted one.
Nice shots , by the way

From the same roll of expired Agfa APX 25... except I really missed the exposure... but managed to make something of it nonetheless.

Kodak Ultramax 400 color film developed as B&W in Ilfotech (14 minutes). Taken with a Pentax Spotmatic F + SMC Takumar 24/3.5 near wide open + scanned with Espon V600 ... a few Lr4 adjustments. Film. Is. Too. Much. Fun.

Only vague memories, as I probably haven't been there since the early '90s. Most of my relatives in the area live south of Truro, so it wasn't a usual stop on family roadtrips.
