Argus A - ORWO UN54 - R3 Monobath
I decided to try the R3 Monobath developer. This is the first roll. I forgot to warm it to 27 degrees C until after it was over. Afterwards the developer was about 25 degrees C. I poured the developer into a single 35mm plastic film tank. I turned off the lights and loaded a reel with 35mm film and put into the tank. Started the timer already set for 6 minutes. I screwed the lid on the tank gently, as it says not to agitate the film. I then turned the lights on. At the end of the 6 minutes I unscrewed the tank top and removed the film. I had a little difficulty getting hold of the reel (next time I will use a two reel tank) and removed the film immediately dunking into a container with running water in it. I washed the film for 5 minutes. Simple as it gets.
The first ten shots I scanned last night were great but the last shots on the roll (on outer edge of reel) show definite streaking from the sprocket holes. I must look into this perhaps some gentle agitation at beginning of development to make sure film is evenly coated.
