I wondered what would happen if I developed a color negative film as a black and white negative?
So I bought a "classic" Kodak Gold ISO 200 film:
It is in good, fresh condition (to be developed before 11/2025).
It was originally intended for C-41 processing. But after shooting I developed it as a B&W negative film: 5ml Rodinal clone and 500ml water (very diluted solution 1:100) and stand developed for one hour. And then the usual (sodium thiosulfate based) fixer. There was no bleaching step in the process.
Surprisingly, there are some pictures on the film:
Of course, there is the expected red tint (due to the mask) and the negatives are slightly dark. But I successfully digitized the film with a digital camera.
Camera: Vivitar 3800N
Film: Kodak Gold ISO 200 (C-41), exposed as ISO100-200, developed as a B&W negative film.
Lens: Pentax K 30/2.8 at f/2.8-5.6
