tom kirkman Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Hi, This is my first post on here and I am pretty new to 16mm cinematography. Today I processed my first lot of black and white film, kodak surveillance WL 2210 which I bought from ebay, the results were a bit ropey and inconsistent. I processed it at my uni where we only have ID-11 chemistry but I can only find specs and times for processing this film using D-76 chemistry which from what I have read online is basically kodaks version of ID-11 but on the ilford process chart the times for the two are about 2 minutes diffrent depending on the iso at which you have shot. does anyone know if I should just follow the D-76 times but with ID-11 or if there is a equation to work out the correct time I need to use? or even if anyone has processed this film in ID-11 what times and temps you used. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew OConnell Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Hi Tom, I also bought some of this stock off eBay. I had it processed at Alphacine in Seattle. They said it was a bit tricky, but no problem. I would give them a call re. chemistry / timings etc. They are pretty helpful. This stock, for the price, is pretty good I think. It didn't have the contrast of 7222 but it was good in low light and still looked nice. Cheers, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoni Rudnicki Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Hi Tom I hand processed about 8 rolls of WL 2210 so far in ID11 in a Lomo tank with good results. Prebath in water 2 min @ 21 C ID11 6 minutes @ 20 C Stop bath 30 sec Rinse 2 min Fixer 5 min Wash 2 min Hypo 3 min Wash 5 min Photo flow 1 min Dry With timings only developer temperature is crucial - prebath is a higher temperature to warm up the tank. cheers Antoni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Dunn Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 ID-11 and D-76 are identical formulations. Any difference is probably down to the manufacturers' recommendations for their own stocks. I would consider the timings to be interchangeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve waschka Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 what are you using to transport the film thru the bath? rewind, spiral tank? or are you literally "hand" processing in a bucket or tray? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
