Hi friends, I just wanted to put this here for the record, for anyone looking to reversal process Fomapan R100. I'm very happy with the results I'm getting, full ISO with good shadow detail, and nice crisp highlights.
I basically follow this guy's process to the letter: (make sure you've got subtitles switched on)
I even went out and found those 1.5 liter bottles that he uses (not cheap).
My one alteration is to use Ilford's PQ Universal developer instead of Dokumol. It is more readily available here in the US, and relatively inexpensive. I also already use it for other photographic processes, so it just means one less thing I have to buy an keep on hand.
Note that using distilled water really helps make these solutions last a long time.
My solutions are:
Developer 1: 200ml PQ Universal + 1300ml distilled water
Bleach: 1200ml distilled water + 70ml 50% Sulfuric Acid + 15g potassium dichromate + water to make 1500ml
Clearing Bath: 140g Sodium Sulphite + distilled water to make 1500ml
Developer 2: 200ml PQ Universal + 1300ml distilled water
Fixer: Ilford Rapid Fix
My timings are (all at 68 degrees F)
Pre-wash 1 minute
Dev 1 8 minutes
Rinse 30 seconds
Bleach 5 minutes
Rinse 1 minute
Clearing 3 minutes
Rinse 30 seconds
Re-Exposure 1 minute
Dev 2 8 minutes
Rinse 1 minute
Fix 3 minutes
Wash 3 minutes
Hypo clear 1 minute
Final wash 3 minutes.
Do you reuse the solution or use it one time and throw it away?

Do you still have 16mm film?

Martin, thanks so much. I'll develop in the next 3 days and I'll come back with results. Do you recommend using TMax instead? I also have a new bottle of it

I just got some kodak black and white 4x reversal 7277. Which developer, dilution and how much time would you develop? I'm thinking about making tests with dektol, d76 and ilford pqu.

Hello, what results did you get? Where did you find the 3-pin power cable?
