Film Development #10 / 2026 - test film from a mystery prospective new camera!
#instastory #instastoryelsewhere #filmphotography #filmdeveloping #fomapan

It's double Fomapan 200 development day - the last two rolls from the Easter Berlin trip!

Roll 7 of this year is the second attempt at Kentmere Pan 200 and it turned out too bright like the first one - 8 minutes in 1+25 Rodinal still seem to be too long.

Film kitties achieved! This roll actually began over Christmas and finished around Easter.

We Bought Black and White Film on Temu So You Don’t Have To https://petapixel.com/2026/03/12/we-bought-black-and-white-film-on-temu-so-you-dont-have-to/ #blackandwhitedeveloping #chinesefilmroundup #analogphotography #blackandwhitefilm #filmdeveloping #blackandwhite #hayamoufilm #xinbaifilm #luckyfilm #Features #filmtest #nikonf90 #renefilm #Reviews #35mmfim #nikonfe #nikonfg #Analog #analog #film

When you start developing film with Rodinal, you realize how short 30 seconds is, and how long a minute is.

So a friend of mine asked me to develop his roll of Fomapan 100. Sure, no problem. But, when I asked did he shot it as box speed, or maybe he pushed it, I got an answer I wasn't prepared for - "I don't remember anymore, a bit under 100, probably 80".

And now I'm sitting here, not having a clue how to develop it - thinking about Rodinal 1+50 at 7 min straight, and hope for the best. 🤔

Yes, developed my first role of 120 medium format film and first role at home, by myself. Funny how I dreaded this for so long. Working in a changing bag is a bit getting used to, fortunately I did not go for the smaller bag, 120 paper makes a mess in the bag. Developing took less time then preparing and cleaning up. #120film #analogphotography #ilfordhp5 #filmisnotdead #mediumformat #filmDeveloping #IlfordHP5Plus

Travel Plans and Parental Controls

Bellana came home late last night. Late enough that I was asleep. I woke up at 4:00am for some reason and checked the driveway and her car was there. Wonderful! My step daughter is home!

By 8:30am though we had dropped her off at the airport. She’s flying to Denver, meeting a friend, and then driving back to somewhere in North Carolina. From there she’s going to Atlanta and flying to Orlando where she will meet up with the rest of us for our Disney trip the week after next.

That’s a lot of traveling!

Her flight hasn’t boarded yet, but according to flightaware.com it is still on time. Safe travels, Bellana! We love you!

On an unrelated note, I think I need to set up parental controls on my computer. I think I need to block ebay. Yeah… I bought another camera last night. What the fuck, Robert? This one is a 35mm with autofocus. It has a 50mm lens too. Bonus! I still don’t think I will take any film on our vacation, but it is pretty clear my self imposed two month film hiatus isn’t going to last more than a few days. Oh well. I tried.

While we’re on the subject of film, I got a notification from the lab I sent the last batch of film to that it arrived. That was Thursday afternoon. I was hope hope hoping that I would receive word that the scans were available yesterday but I gots nuttin’. I doubt they’ll be working over the weekend, so hopefully early next week we’ll have the results. I’m optimistic that the five medium format rolls come out okay. Four of them might at least. One of them might be a smidge under exposed. I had the light meter app on my phone set wrong during one roll. Dumb ass. Everything else (hopefully) was free of user errors or dumb ass fuck ups. Fingers crossed.

Giddy

Look at the nerd boy being all giddy.

The film lab sent him an email saying the received my latest film order. We’re going to have new film shots to play with at some point over the next couple of business days.

Squee, bro… squee.

But coming and going to and from where? In this specific case it was the post office. I mailed some important stuff for my wife and one absolutely not important thing for me. What was the thing? Film. Seven rolls of 35mm film has been sent off to the lab for developing. Get ready for insufferable Robbie to rear his very ugly head.
