"Wheel Barrel at Rest"

I have a AGFA PD16 Clipper that's been in my collection for a couple decades. I decided to see what it could do, this is a. 16 second exposure on Fomaspeed 312 paper. Developed with D76 under a safelight. Scanned and inverted with an Iphone. The Clippers is going to see some time out after sitting on my shelf for so long. I'm going to give it a roll of 120 Arista EDU 400, the numbers seem to match up with the red window on the back of the camera.

Pinhole – cont’d

Overall more successful than the previous days, despite not being 100% in the clear about a couple of issues.

The breakdown goes like this: I shot the remaining sheets of Foma paper in normal daylight. One, properly exposed, came out great, the other one was shot in much trickier lighting conditions (backlit), so it’s hella contrasty (and it would have benefited from at least 1 stop extra exposure). Still, no issues whatsoever. Everything was developed in the same Caffenol soup from yesterday (2nd batch).

So I decided to test that mystifying Ilford paper once more. I cut 4 sheets from a larger one that I picked from the bottom of the box. Developed one unexposed and came out uniformly stained, but clean. I left the second one underneath the safelight with an object on it, to see if the lamp was the culprit. Came out stained but clean all the same, with no trace of the object. From that, I could draw two conclusions and was left with a new question and no solution for the previous day’s issues: 1) the safelight was, indeed, safe and 2) there was no initial issue with base fog whatsoever. Why the developer suddenly started staining the paper, on the other hand, goes beyond me (I had not encountered any staining on the Foma and neither in the rare instances where I had actual whites on the Ilford, the previous day). It also meant I was back to square one to try and troubleshoot the cloudy patterns on yesterday’s pictures.

As the light was dropping fast, I headed outside to make the most of what was left. Beside repositioning the camera after I had already started exposing (hello slight double exposure), that was the first proper, decent shot I got on the Ilford. There were still traces of that cloudy pattern, though, so at this point I wonder if it is reflections of some sort on the paper’s surface (the Ilford is glossy, the Foma is “velvet”, which is a sort of semi-matte grainy finish). I did paint the inside of the camera matte black, but maybe it’s picking up some stray light from somewhere, somehow. Case in point, it’s mostly visible when the exposure is very long or the calculation resulted in slight overexposure.

The last test was back inside under artificial light. Unfortunately, I had to pull it before the exposure was complete (because I was in the kitchen, and it was near dinner time, so…) and it eventually came out underexposed. Still, knowing that, I’m fairly positive I’ve finally got the right numbers dialled in to get in the ballpark for proper exposures, when the lighting isn’t too tricky/contrasty to begin with.

A few questions remain: why the stain not showing immediately, when the developer is supposed to be stronger, but only after a while, and why those patterns (reflections?) only on the Ilford. Other than that, I’m happy with what I got. Now I’m out of fixer so no more tests for a while, but next time I’ll make sure to have some proper developer at hand, too.

Again, tl;dr

The shots, the shots!

So this is the one daylight shot that came out quite right on the Foma. Timed at 2:30 min. Contrasty for sure, but mostly right. The scan is very much as-is.

This second attempt with the Foma, timed at around 20 min, was a tricky scene with a backlit situation. Given that anything comes out contrasty af on this paper even when the light is more even, I really couldn’t expect to get much out of it. On top of that, I think I could have let it get an extra stop of light. My bad.

Some 40 min worth of exposure, back on the Ilford. Notice the double exposure at the bottom (upside down) as I repositioned the camera after the countdown had started. The negative came out looking good, with good blacks and good whites, although some minor traces of what I thought was fogging are still visible. Perhaps they are reflections instead, jury’s still out on that one.

The last one on Ilford should have run for at least 1h20m but I had to cut it short, so it’s underexposed. Such a pity because I concocted a nice still life scene with shiny metallic and translucent objects that I was hoping would show some nice shades of grey. Oh well.

Generally speaking, the Foma was easier to deal with and much more predictable, albeit seemingly more contrasty. The Ilford would make a great candidate for midtones, but it’s way too crazy on development, reflections and whatnot. YMMV.
