david_walters Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 If anyone has development times for pulled Neopan 400 (exposed at 200) I would be grateful form the times and developer info (product, time, dilution). Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_stockdale2 Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 Neopan pulls itself. Exposing at 200 is my ideal. Just don't develop too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henk Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 John is right, keep it neat and short, neopan has really hard contrast if you dev it too long. Very versatile and practical film IMO. Greetings, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_waller Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 As a rule of thumb reduce the development time by 1/3 per stop downrating., e.g. if the time at 400 ASA were 9 minutes then at 200 dev for 6 mins. Sorry I don't have any actual times/developers but try Ilford's website for times in ID11, Perceptol etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_gruber Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 What developers do people like with Neopan? Any thoughts on HC-110 or Rodinal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_walters Posted December 4, 2002 Author Share Posted December 4, 2002 Thanks to you all for this feedback. John's response seems logical, HP5+ pulls itself as well. I'll let you know how I make out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wickedmartini Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 For an EI of 250 the recommended processing time for Neopan 400 (135) in a small tank would be 6.5 minutes at 68 degrees. Try to avoid generalizations for pushing and pulling black and white films as no two films are exactly alike--especially when it comes to processing. Here's a link for the data sheet: http://fujifilm.com/JSP/fuji/epartners/bin/Neopan400.pdf I hope that helps you. Michael D.

wickedmartini Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 The processing recommendation above is for D-76. Michael D. D'Avignon mdavignon@fujifilmesys.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_langfelder Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 In Xtol 1+1 I reduce development a little bit, but not much - maybe by 20% compared to 400 (concretely 10:30 min compared to 12:30 min at 400, 3 inversions per minute), to keep better shadow detail (Neopan 400 looses it easily). I'm not getting any excessive contrast and a much better shadow details than when shot at 400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
