Tips

For best results, expose at ISO 100 and develop in Fomadon Excel or D-76 according to standard times. If you need extra speed, push to ISO 200 and extend development by about 30%. Store unexposed film in a refrigerator to preserve its quality, and allow it to reach room temperature before loading to avoid condensation.
