Based on a suggestion (and some nice examples) I saw somewhere, I tried HP5+ in Rodinal 1:50 for 11.5 minutes with a 30-second initial agitation and 1 agitation per minute after that. I liked the results, although in 35mm I saw some evidence of bromide drag due to the minimal agitation. I'm going to try this approach on a roll of 120 once I finish shooting it and see how that goes. I may try it in BW&G as well but the stated development times for HP5+ are even longer (15.25 minutes). I usually develop HP5+ in DD-X but it's

Currently, I have one 250 ml bottle of Rodinal and was trying to figure out the fastest way to finish it. A one liter tank holds two rolls of 120 film, a 1:25 dilution uses 38 ml of concentrated developer. I bought twelve rolls of HP-5 specifically for this project. The goal is to use up both the Rodinal and any 120 film that isn’t Tri-X. I like Bellini’s RDL and have had good results using it to develop Tri-X in a 1:50 dilution.

So Freestylephoto was (is?) blowing out Aristapan 100 at $4/36 exp.

One would think there has to be a reason why they are getting rid of it for so cheap, right?
Yeah but not me...

Anyway, just developed my 'test' roll to see how it performs. I used what is arguably the greatest 35mm camera ever made - the Sears Mini 35 aka Ricoh FF1.

And, er, the results:





As you can see there are line marks running parallel across the image surface, as well as what seems to be defects in the emulsion.
However, I developed the film in DF96 Monobath, and then wiped the excessive water off with Kimwipes to prevent drying marks. I do this with all the film I develop, including the roll of HP5 that was also in the same dev tank.
It seems that DF96 does not play well with Aristapan 100,in as much that it makes the emulsion soft which is why there are marks from the Kimwipes. There were no such marks on the HP5.
Also the other random emulsion defects could be from the DF96. Or it could be why Freestylephoto is blowing out this film at $4/roll!

So that's what happened.

Use it like Brad does with the textured double exposures. In this case, the film comes with it's own texture!
