Those photos really stand out; nice tone and contrast. They seem exceptionally smooth for a 400 speed film--maybe that's your special magic. Am I right that Orwo was an East German manufacture? are they still in business?

Larry, you've done some nice stuff with this ORWO film! Are you doing your own experiments, or are you basing it on existing information?
That photographer with the box camera has man's hands and wimmen's feets. :?

All on my own. No one has posted much on it so I am doing it by getting close by looking at similar films and then working in that area... After the 400 test then I will do the 200-250 where I believe this film is most likely to be true at.

OK I just put the Dilution H films up to dry and they look real nice and sharp. I hope to get them scanned tonight.

Oh Lord Fit city. I did the first roll at 5 minutes and felt that was not long enough. Well 5.5 minutes is too long for E.I 400. Maybe I had a thermometer error as I am not used to short times in developing. I have another roll I shot today so I will go back to 5 minutes for it ..... Oh the fun of testing a film with no instructions. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jokerphotography/sets/72157629406816907/ Untitled-7 by inetjoker, on Flickr  Untitled-16 by inetjoker, on Flickr |

Those look good in the web. 5 minutes is kind of edgy for me. Too short.
