a sampling
a sampling of a few of the images shot on some Agfa Superpan Supreme film that expired in April, 1943. While I'm pleased with the results (the film hadn't been exposed and was able to hold images after all this time!), I'm puzzled by the odd, brownish, grainy banding (or stain) that run along the length of the strip. Could be my fixer has done bad (but I'd expect a more uniform problem in that case) or could this be a little reticulation? Knowing that the older emulsions can crack and rupture if care is not taken to keep all the chemical and rinse temps the same, I made an effort to do so. Again, I'd think if it were reticulation, the results would be more uniform.
shot with Canon AE-1 Program, metered at 12 & 25, Compard R09 stand developing.
