Don Harpold Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Hello All I have some 35mm 5222 DoubleX coming and was wondering if some of you can post a photo or two with this film and give me your developing. I have HC110, Rodinal, and Pyrocat HD which I am using more and more. Also, do you shoot it at 200 or 100 or? Thanks Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Bowes Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Hello everyone. Don, over in Film Cam. Wk for Sept 1 (pg 3) I also have two other pictures taken during a race weekend with a roll of 5222/XX in my Fed-2/Jupiter-8, @ 125asa on my Pilot, and processed in my "normal" Obsidian Aqua for 16min @ 68f. The results were good, but nothing that blows my UFX/Kentmere 100 materials away & considering the hassle of getting the XX film in small rolls, plus the postage, I rate the UFX/Kentmere 100 material my contender for this asa range film. I rate the UFX/Kentmere 100 material @ 80asa, so not much is given away in speed. For this range of material I am almost always using the monopod. If it is "speed" I need, the 2nd Fed is loaded with 400 material rated at 250asa. Your PyrocatHD should give you equal results at 3mlA + 3ml B & 450ml of DI water @ 16m.

Mike Gammill Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I rate my 5222 at E.I. 250 and process it in HC110 dilution B for 5' at 68F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Harpold Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Thanks Bill and Mike I just received 5 rolls from Photo Warehouse that does the Ultrafine Extreme I will give it a try when I can, and try both the Pyrocat HD and the HC110, both look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Bowes Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Pleased to see you found a source for the film. I just checked their "store" via their Ebay listing & see that 5 rolls are up for just under $35 USD delivered . . not a bad price indeed. I even order a lot, just in case the "urge" strikes again.
