Hasselblad 501CM, Planar 100 with extension tube, yellow filter.

FP4 in Pyro 48.

Fomatone 132 batch 079648-06,

two tray development:

1st SE5 Lith (A+B+D+water) 50+50+50+1000ml 3 mins.

2nd Pyrocatechol 15ml + Lith B 15ml + NH4Cl 20% 5ml + water 800ml 3 mins.

Gegenüber dem vorherigen Beispiel ist hier der zweite Entwickler etwas anders abgestimmt, aber auch bei völlig identischer Verarbeitung ist das matte Papier (132) immer etwas farbiger als das glänzende (131).

Compared to the previous example, the second developer is slightly different here, but even with completely identical processing, the matte paper (132) is always slightly more colourful than the glossy paper.

The current batches show the desired results in the lith printing process, but it should be noted that the snowball problem still persists with long development times (over 6–8 minutes).

I described the strategy for avoiding undesirable structures some time ago (Dec. 2023).

For easier reference, I have added the instructions for the three lith developer variants to my website.
