George,

What is the difference between Rodinal and Technidol?

As you may have guessed, I intend to try Rodinal out of curiosity as Konica
750 is my favourite film at the moment and normally gets a good dunking in
HC to provide great contrasty results.

I have abstracted from the developer manufacturers' data, Konica data, my
own experience and what I have read on the list to get to the following
starting point for Rodinal development of Konica 750 shot with an R72
filter using a Jobo processor:

Konica 750 in Rodinal at 1:75  shot at ASA 8 using an R72 filter - 8
minutes in Jobo processor.

Will let you know how it turns out - this will take a couple of weeks as I
am now trying to print up a backlog of IR negs :-)


All the best,

              Clive   http://www.cocam.co.uk
