Re: OT but your help is requested

2010-09-20 by Paul Kohl

Well, I have now developed several rolls of the Fomapan 100 and there 
is no getting around it: the blue base is for keeps. I have tried 
lots of things to get rid of it but nothing happens...so, it is a 
"feature not a bug."
I do like the tonal quality of the negatives. It is curly as Julia 
Roberts' hair but perhaps that's a feature too. No matter what, I 
shot a whole bunch of this film when I was in Budapest so what a got 
is what I got...truth be told, that is why I shoot film. If I wanted 
everything to be completely predictable there is always digital...
Thanks to all for the advice and suggestions.
Paul
