Hi, I just got into film photography and self-processing. I developed my first batch of rolls yesterday, and there are some errors that I found on the images that I hope I can fix next time. If anybody can give me some advises on what could have gone wrong, that would be greatly helpful.
I took this one with my Olympus 35RD & Kodak TX400, and scanned with Plustek 7200. Used Ilford DD-X/ Kodak stop bath / Illford Rapid fixer / Kodak Photo-flo to develop. Beside my cat's hair got in during scanning, there are white spots, that I assume are from improper washing.
This one was taken with Leica M4 + 50mm Summicron collapsible and Ilford HP5+ 400. The haze is from the lens – I got a cheap one due to my limited budget. There is a strip of white spots running across on the upper side.
These two were taken with the M4 + Ilford FP4 125. One thing I noticed was that even with ASA(ISO) 125, I still see somewhat grainy texture on a flat surface. Like the upper side of 'Cafe Gratitude' on the first photo, and the sky on the second one. Any idea why this would happen?
Also I'm open to any tips, advices, feedbacks! I want to learn more. Thanks in advance!!
