Spent four nights at this State Park, so I had plenty of chances to catch some decent light. This was an hour or so before sunset, with partial clouds providing variable shadows.
Beautiful job.

I must take a look at this film. Really nice grain structure and color. Are you shooting box speed or rating it?

Shot at box speed, using handheld meter in incident mode. Superia XTRA was discontinued. Beware, there are a lot of listing for it online that are actually for Fujifilm 400, I think sellers just didn't update their pictures/descriptions when it was discontinued. I still have a few rolls in the fridge that I break out every once in a while

Roll 179: While I have given up on shooting expired film from questionable (ebay) sources, I do remain curious about film stocks that are available, just not in 120. A hand roller was looking for interest in Kodak Technical Pan in 120, and I jumped at the opportunity. I have read that Rodinal is not the best choice for this film, but I am a one chemistry kind of guy, so I wanted to check what Rodinal gave me. The internet had its usual recommendations without any kind of data, so I did a test roll using the anecdotes from the internet as guides/guesses.
Developer: Rodinal, 1+95, 10 mL + 950 mL, 20 C, 10 minutes in Simma roller (continuous agitation)
I shot my usual 'square of squares' assuming ISO25, with exposures from -5 stops below normal to +6 above normal exposure along with one blank frame to measure "base + fog". If ISO25 had been the correct film speed, then the exposure 4 stops below normal should have given me a density of 0.09 (0.3 stops darker than "base + fog"). However, I need an extra stop of light to reach that density, so the actual film speed is ISO12. The internet was right about one thing though - Rodinal gives this film a ton of contrast. I get a contrast index of > 1. I will perhaps try a higher dilution or a shorter development time.
I think the flattening of the film curve is because of reciprocity failure. The slow speed of the film, the limited brightness of white light panel, and wanting to shoot at f/6.7 to limit vignetting meant that the last three exposures were 1 s, 2 s, and 4 s in length.

Over the last day, I put three rolls of somewhat expired film through a seventy year old camera that defiantly needs a good CLA. The camera will go out next week but I did manage to get a few.

I had high hopes for the FP-4 but between the sticky shutter and an apparent winding mistake, I ony got a couple. Chalk it up to learning experience.
