Yes, that's what it is. I'm not sure if the sensitivity takes a hot when you do this.

It's not something I've ever had a desire to do.

I dunno, it's rated 400 but it's really grainy so maybe it's faster stock, or badly underexposed @ 400..

I have some Rollei Redbird resting quietly in my freezer, wondering how I should use it.

I'm unfamiliar with the term "reverse-rolled." Can somebody explain this to me, or point me to a reference? I tried google, and all I got were hits on "reverse rolling" window film.

Reverse rolling refers to rerolling (in a darkroom etc.) 35mm film so that when you load it into the camera the emulsion ends up against the pressure plate. That way, when you expose it, the has to go through the film base before being recorded. Essentially you are using the film base as a filter.
I've wondered if just using a red filter would give basically the same results...

Speaking of fun... it doesn't get much more fun than shooting with a swing-lens panoramic camera

The more film I shoot, the more I like the DOF that I get out of some dirt cheap lenses and I just have this feeling that the K-3ii could end up with a Dear John letter next year. Li'll sis K-50 is safe being cute and pettite

These are Fujifilm Supria 200 and AGFA VistaPlus 200.

Was trying out a new rangefinder unit with this roll, and while it's much contrastier than my old one I'm not certain I've got it adjusted fully. Focus often seems a little off in the resultant shots. Though in this first one, that it was wide open likely didn't help; those edges are not good.
