Roll #38 – Foma Retropan 320 Soft

Foma Retropan 320 Soft (35mm)

Now that the HGB workshop driving the Memories project is over (will take a while to sequence the book), I decided to try to finish “The 52 rolls of 2015”… in 2016. So that’s 14 more rolls until the end of the year in 5 months – almost one per week again.

Let’s start with Foma Retropan 320, which I got for free on top of another film purchase. I’m not sure yet whether I like it, or not. It certainly has a special old school high grain / high contrast look.

I messed up the development for a second, but luckily was able to recover with the help of Jens, who runs the Mühlstraße e.V. community darkroom and is a fountain of knowledge. Thanks Jens!

Week #20 – Rollei CR 200

Rollei Chrome CR 200 (used to be Rollei Digibase CR 200)

It’s too late for last week, but too early for next week. Well, I had events to attend and won’t be in town next weekend, so enjoy this TOO-BUSY-SANDWICH [TM].

Updates during the next couple of weeks will be erratic, since I’m moving. Plus I’ll be out of town for most weekends. Don’t worry though, I’ll still be shooting one roll a week, just developing / scanning / uploading will be a bit messed up.
