1st time with Pan F+ - what happened?

[zsas]

This film really shines outside, how was the sun that day?

[brucemuir]

Well, the bracketed shots are better, but the developer must have exhausted on me for the edge markings and frame numbers to not show up?

Both edges?
Maybe you under filled the tank???

[akaa]

zsas - It was a bright beautiful day

bruce - I actually over filled. I was using 500ml with only 1 reel on a 2 reel patterson tank. I believe the minimum as shown on the tank for 1 reel is something like 360ml?

[brucemuir]

Okay, next...
what developer and how old and storage conditions please

edit: okay sorry...I see now D23 but I have zero experience with that.
Seems like 500ml should be okay for 2 rolls of 120 but I'm guessing.

[akaa]

Uh, I mixed this D-23 about 2 weeks ago, stored in a black accordian bottle.

[brucemuir]

Did you cut it 1:1 right before use?

[akaa]

Yep

[brucemuir]

Okay I'll shut up now and let someone with more D23 experience weigh in.
Seems a bit risky using a 1:1 solution twice but I'm unaware of capacities.

Good luck figuring it out.

No edge markings=severe under development.

I've had the same issue with this film. Thin negs. I agree with others that this film needs more
development time.

[NB23]

1:1 twice? There, the severe under development explained.
