| 説明 | I've found an entirely new way to fail this weekend.I still had this roll of Delta in my M3 that I started three or so weekends ago. Today, the weather was just about perfect for it so I took one more look at the film-speed dial on the back (indicating ASA 400) and thus screwed my red filter on the Elmarit 90. It eats three stops of light so my meter was set to ASA 50. And so I spent the morning happily wandering through Kew Gardens, a neighborhood I hadn't visited before shooting the remaining 14 or so frames.The nasty surprise came at home as I pried the film canister out of the M3: It was not Delta 400 but Delta 100. So I shot a third of the film at boxspeed and two thirds would require a two-stop push. Stupid.Since I figured that today's underexposed shots were more worth salvaging, I started looking for a low-grain way to develop this film in a sour mood. I eventually settled with HC-110 (dilution B) plus 4g Sodium Ascorbate to bring down development time by around 30%. I ended up with 8 minutes.The scanning finally brought another surprise: The frames shot at ASA 100 looked roughly correct (if a little too contrasty) while those frames requiring the two-stop push were all over the place and really not very usable. They suffered from shadows way too dense, highlights on the edge of being clipped and only little contrast in the mid-tones. Especially the flat mid-tones spoiled them.So the above photo was from the first third of the film. Normal development probably would have yielded highlights too dark. A one stop push would have been ideal. But even the N+2 isn't totally unusable.In summary, I shot this roll of Delta 100 at around ASA 200 for the first third and then at ASA 400 the remaining frames but Delta 100 doesn't strike me as very conducive to pushing. I just wish the M3 had a little window over the film canister to show me what film was actually loaded. |
