Tri-x 400 pushed to 3200
« on: January 12, 2015, 11:50:39 PM »
Hello,

I've pushed Tri-x 400 to 3200.
I'm really happy with the results. Some of the pics are over/sub exposed ... my fault, of course, but the development is ok. IMHO :-)

Kodak Retina IIa
600ml of Rodinal 1+100 for 2 hours  (inversions first minute + 15 seconds of swirling every 30 minutes)
Epson V370/ Epson Scan
LR 5.7

Oh yes, beautiful :) I've experimented with pushing Tri-X to 3200 in Rodinal, with pretty poor results :( I find I get better results pushing Tri-X to about 1600... But here are examples.

Nice results, I'm truly impressed that you got these results pushing in Rodinal. But 2 hours dev time? You have true patience my friend an all credit to you. I find 15:30 using Xtol a long enough wait never mind 2 hours.  ;D ;D

The longest part of the development of film is getting of one's rear end and getting to it. 2 hours dev time is a mere iota compared.
