Rollei 400s pdf

The 46mm filter a lot cheaper. I used a nm red filter. I am waiting for the development and scans fingers crossed. Thanks for your review it was encouraging to see the results! A quick word on ilford sfx film stock. I love ilford films but SFX is a waste of money. In my humble opinion. Here is a link to my ilford SFX results:. These shots are fantastic and the write up is very informative. Online, it seems like folks simply activate the mirror, then open the shutter and either cover the lens with a cloth at the end of the exposure, or the lens cap.

Thanks again for the great write-up. Hello how are you? Hi again, I have a D90 that is converted to IR as already mentioned. If I put an R72 filter on that do you know what sort if effects that would get? I live shooting with my IR converted D99 — at nm — but I love these and am going to try some in my Hasselblad.

Rollei Infrared — Mamiya RB Table of contents. If they are different now that will require some testing. Jan 23, Messages: 4, Over the past year or so I've read so many different things about Rollei Retro products, so many claims that one film is "really" another film, that Maco data sheets can't be trusted, that the quoted speeds are way off and so on and so forth. In the end therefore it all just seems a lot more "internet bollocks", unless someone has some evidential support beyond their own beliefs for all these wildly conflicting claims.

In the absence of anything sold to go on, the best thing to do is shoot it and work out how best to develop at what EI yourself. I would agree that, as always, testing it yourself is the only way to really tell. Although exact testing with two different films in the same conditions isn't very easy for me. Most of my photo excursions include an accompanying 4 year old boy who has limited patience for his dad setting up tripods and messing around with IR filters on one camera, let alone two.

I just wanted to point out that Rollei's own published data sheets for these films suggest they are the same.

I will certainly be doing some testing with Retro s to see if it performs as well as IR in the infrared end which is what I want to use it for. Apart from IR, I'm about to standardise on all Ilford products as far as film goes. That will do for me. The older versions of s contained this film.

Jan 25, In the region beyond nm the Aviphot Pan and Aviphot S are not that far off and depending on situation might yield similar densities. The latter though should be a true ISO film without filter. Jan 27, Interesting thread.

I think i may have to try retros. My film of choice has been another from rollei; the RPX Last year, i ordered 20 rolls from my supplier here in France and some them arrived with Rs stickers either on the film itself or on the black canister. I reported it to the seller and he assured me after a some time that it is indeed RPX I dont have any of the other films to compare it with but that batch pretty much behaved the same as my previous experiences with RPX. Maybe thats also the reason why they changed the packaging for this film?

No more confusions in the packing line? Hope i didnt add another film in the suspect lineup. Aug 31, Last edited: Aug 31, Oct 20, Maco Mr Junghans confirmed the different Pan-films. The film works incredibly well developed in Rodinal. The above shot was developed in Rodinal with a dilution of , using a stand develop technique for 60min.

While the negs were a tad too dense, the results were still very good. With the initial agitation of one minute, I would replace the old solution with a fresh one at the 30 min mark, and then continue the develop up to the 60 min mark. Also, a warning against stand developing film, is that on several occasions my negatives had uneven density along their width top to bottom in the tank. For this reason, I would highly suggest to explore a semi-stand develop rather than a stand.

If contrast is not your thing, pull this film. Beyond this, it depends on how much faith you have in the anti-halation layer of this film, since light scatter from intense highlights can soften detail in that area. This was a definitely noticeable with EFKE films. And yes, does have compensating affect if agitation intervals are lengthened. The mouse-over image, on the top right, shows two dpi crops of the 6x7cm negative. The first crop shows the level of detail and sharpness of the film, and on mouse-over, a second crop shows the amount and structure of the grain.
