This is a technical follow up on my post showing examples of stand processed film.<\/p>\n

Several readers were interested in seeing comparisons between stand processed negatives versus normally processed negatives.<\/p>\n

I made these photos in the back yard to demonstrate the differences between processed negatives. This is intended to show differences in the amount of information presented and changes in tonality.<\/p>\n

Although there are slight differences in the composition of the scene, these variations are irrelevant for this presentation.<\/em><\/p>\n

All exposures were made on 120-size Kodak Tri-X roll film using a Rolleiflex Model T with 75mm Zeiss Tessar lens, set at f22 1\/60th<\/sup>of second.<\/p>\n

Photos are grouped with both the positive scan of the original negative (to show how the black & white negatives appear without reversal) and the digitally reversed ‘positive’, that appears as would a print of the negative. Photos have NOT been altered except for scaling. There have been no adjustments to gamma, density, etc.<\/p>\n

Details of the differences in processing are indicated in the captions.<\/p>\n

This is a work in progress.<\/p>\n

Normal process:<\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Kodak Tri-X processed in HC110 dilution B (1-32) at 68F for a total of 9 minutes in two baths. Agitation 3 inversions every 30 seconds. No post processing adjustment or manipulation.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Low Contrast Process, using normal dilution and agitation.<\/p>\n

Stand process without toning.<\/h3>\n

Stand process: HC110 mixed 4 ml to 500 ml of water plus special additives to minimize the cumulative effects of chemical fogging; 10 seconds agitation at beginning of process, stand for 1 hour at 72F, process as normal through wash cycle. No toning.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
