<p>yeah, keep us updated... my guess would be everything black (white) with only some marginal texture. I think that the Delta3200 has a pretty thin emulsion layer, so the light might have gone through it completely.<br>

But according to Ansel Adams and the very basic rules of thumb:<br>

 

<p>Normal development time, plus 100% @ 3 stops DR<br>

Normal development time, plus 50% @ 4 stops DR<br>

Normal development time only @ 5 stops DR<br>

Reduce normal development time by 20% @ 6 stops DR<br>

Reduce normal development time by 40% @ 7 stops DR</p>

<p>But you will never get the shadows you wanted.<br>

Don't kill me people, this works in standard film, standard developer, standard dilution situation. :-) Delta is definitely not a "standard" film, though.</p>

<p>Go with Andrew's advice. You need the more dilute solution to give enough time for consistent, even development, so Dil H should do. The time with Dil B would be much too short, unless you dipped the reel into an open tank pre-filled with developer and processed in the dark.</p>

<p>I shot a roll by mistake at ISO 400 and I got it down with Rodinal 1-25 6 minutes... MDC says 5.5 You may want to try HC-110 Dilution H at. 5.5-6 min.<br /> http://www.flickr.com/photos/jokerphotography/sets/72157618350042195/</p>

<p>Waste a frame, do a snip test (process 9" ...full width film...after the leader) in whatever highly dilute developer you want...I'd stand process (after initial water soak) Rodinal @ 1:100 for 20 minutes (around 1/2-13 normal). </p>

<p>Thanks for the responses. I'll do snip tests, but I'm curious about dilution H. According to Andy's linked article, the dilution ratios that are listed are from the syrup concentrate. Could I dilute my stock solution of HC-110 dil. B with a 1:15 ratio for my working solution? I do have some concentrate to work with as well, but I was wondering if my idea would work too. </p>
