Some Kodak Safety Film 5063 AKA Tri-X. I think I used Acutol back then. Olympus Pen FT half frame camera, circa 1977

Sweet photo. I miss all the high speed films... too many have gone
---
The camera, 1 Kodak Autographic Special Model A, was made in 1919 or 1920. The film, Holga 400, was made by Foma but with a stiffer, less good backing paper. 1 Autographic Kodak Special Model A, December 8 2012 by Jussi, on Flickr

Twelve minutes, straight solution. I'd shot at f/8 and 1/500 mostly. The negatives are denser than usual.

I live life to the fullest, on the edge, testing my wings and pushing the envelope.
Either that or I was too lazy to find where I had my Rodinal dilution/time notes in the box of chemistry and developing implements.

the auto exposure expects a 'normal' scene with a percentage of highlights blown (assumed sky) - I tend to set my scanner to deliver a flat scan which I can then choose what is blown or not.

I "re-printed" a couple of images with photoshop... these are from 2009 on Ilford Delta 100 in a Voigtlander Rollfilmkamera with a Skopar lens. weatherbeaten by Jussi, on Flickr Boat out of water by Jussi, on Flickr

That Rolleicord IV that popped into my hands recently does have a very nice Tessar on it. This is TMAX 400 in straight, well used D76 first shot, Rolleicord by Jussi, on Flickr

Tri-X in D76 straight; Bessa R with a Canon RF 50/1.8 lens. I developed another roll at the same time, in the same tank, but the camera is a Dacora Matic 4D. Question comes to mind is the higher quality lens/camera always better than a lousier one? Ford by Jussi, on Flickr Chef by Jussi, on Flickr

Dacora Matic 4D, an 'autofocus' camera that zone focuses based on which of the 4 shutter buttons you select... Tri-X in D76 Barbara by Jussi, on Flickr

Agreed -- b&w in snow can be so alluring, as you clearly show.

Steve, I'm concluding I'm just not macho enough for these reels... though I will try again. The Nikor was new in box; the Kindermanns are used but in great shape. I doubt I'll be enough of a masochist to try 120 on metal reels.

Tri-X in the KX, in D76. SMC-M 50/1.4 lens. Pretty plain vanilla, yes? However, I bought some metal reels and tanks for the first time ever (going back to '72) and attempted to load said Tri-X on said Honeywell Nikor reel. Partial success.
I lost about 1/3 of the roll from improper loading.
