The year 2020 keeps me limited pinholing on my way to and from work, due to the Covid Pandemie.
I usually travel by bicycle. I was late, it was already dark and the RSS was mounted on my bike.

Developer – ASD – from Michael Weyl

ASD is a developer for stand- or semistand development.

Metol-Hydrochinon is his chemical base.

Standart method:

1 min continous agitation

stand- or semistand with minimal agitation

20 degrees celsius is the recommended temperature, here are Michaels tipss for temp correction.

So here are Michaels recommended dev times:

Kodak Technical Pan and Kodak Royal X

I got a few rolls of Kodak Technical Pan (expired 1993) and Royal X (about the same age).

My Kodak technical pan (exposed ISO 50) development

in 7 min D96 monobath 20 C resulted in very contrasty images with a clear carrier. RSS 6×6 pinhole.

in 60 min Adonal (Rodinal) 1:100 stand it left the carrier foggish but rendered a nicer contrast overall. I prefer the pics I got this way.

In 10 min Adonal 1:100, 20C, 2 min Agitation contrasty but nice images.

Rüdiger Hartung recommended the Pota Developer and even provided me with a curve for Technical Pan 12 ISO:

1 Liter water
1,5 g Phenidon
30 g Natriumsulfit

510-pyro did work well, 1:200, about 10min

2020, July, „my way home“, 1993 expired technical pan, 510-pyro 1:200 10min, Agfa Isoletta (build 950)
2020, July, „my way home“, 1993 expired technical pan, 510-pyro 1:200 10min, Agfa Isoletta (build 950)

The Kodak Royal X(exposed ISO 200) in D96 had a really dark grey fog, I think this film is gone beyond usability. RSS 6×6 pinhole.

In Rodinal 1:100, 20 C, 1 hour semistand it also had a pronounced fog but was good to scan and gave me a few nice pics.
