chris_rini1 Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Our old friend Verichrome Pan was discontinued last year. Has anyone else found a film that seemingly can't be misexposed in a Brownie? So far I've rather liked Agfapan 100 and Ilford Pan-F. Thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_eve Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 I always recommend one of the chromogenic (C-41 compatable) films, such as XP2. They work very well when rated from 50-800ASA so are ideal in a camera with "limited" exposure options. If you're looking for a more traditional emulsion, try Efke, it's an "old-fashioned" emulsion with lots of silver in it, but I'm not sure if it's got the dual-coating that Verichrome Pan had. Pan-F is VERY good when exposed correctly, but can get very contrasty if over-exposed ... you'd need to be reasonably sure of your shutter speed, then choose an aperture to suit the conditions, assuming you've got some. I've not used Agfapan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 You might try Ilford FP4+. Same speed as VP (ISO 125)and lots of latitude. I'm shooting a roll in a Kodak Duaflex IV (rewound onto a 620 spool) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
