XAFomapan100Exp--010.jpg


I suppose I should be more respectful of the elderly but these two crones were fairly ancient. (Well,...the one on the left in particular.) Good for them for getting some fresh air and exercise, though!

Took this shot with my Oly XA and Fomapan 100 film (exp). I developed the film in Rodinal. 1:100 dilution, and I think I developed the film for 60 minutes.

I like the Fomapan. It has good tones and contrast (in my opinion) and the negs are nice and flat.
 
Very nice clarity it gives too Brian. I like the flow of the light from centre to right in this. It adds dynamism to an otherwise static view I think. And I reckon they are eyeing up the children's slide on the left there and arguing about who goes first!!
 
I thought it was a digital shot when I first opened (looking at it on the iPhone)
I can see the grain when I look closer of course but the handling of highs (nearly lost to white) and the contrast in general is almost digital like
 
Thanks Rob!

Hamish,...As a (mostly) film shooter I don't know whether to take that as a compliment to the film or what...? ;) Anyway, thanks.
 
It's a compliment Brian! :D

I was thinking how crisp it looked as well - the look I liked from the PanF

Will have to give Fomapan 100 a try - I see B&H stock it

Was there anywhere local that stocked it?
