Brembo & Concert - Fomapan 200 in SuperGrain

Fomapan 200 in SuperGrain 1+12, 5'30"

Canon E-F

Decently developed, but slightly thin. Perhaps slightly underdeveloped, shadows are thin, but have detail. Also indoor inside a church, the results are quite usable. Grain is very good.

Wheels and Water - Fomapan 200 in Rodinal

Fomapan 200 in Rodinal 1+50

Results look fine at a first glance, but they reveal blocked shadows especially in strong contrast. Detail and highlights are great, mid-tones too. Grain is quite good.

Maybe the film does not reach full speed in this developer combination, but just overexposing would have yielded a too high density.

Aerial Pictures: Lambro and Certosa

Aerial Photographs taken with Nikon F90s.

Film used Rollei Retro 80S in Rollei SuperGrain 1+15 developed for 11 minutes, a combination I never tried but which definitely looks interesting.

But the best success is the Gratiarum Cartusia, the latin name of "Certosa di Pavia".
