Shot another roll of Eastman Double-X 5222, dev'd in D-96 (a slight bit too long)
Shot with my Nikon FM2n and the Nikkor 105mm f/2.5.
Just stuff around my neighborhood; light pole halloween decorations, fire truck, an American Flag, and some ripples in a creek.
All printed on Adorama variable contrast glossy paper at 8x10 size and then scanned on my Epson 550 or whatever it is.

Thanks!
The only bummer is that it's E.I. is 250 and not 400 but I guess that's not that big of a deal. I rate it at 320 generally and don't have any real problems that I can see.
Post some of your film shots!
Edited to add: I did a search; nice stuff you got! (I don't know how I missed them.)

Nice pictures, especially considering the source. I hope the senior center doesn't use that as their year-round advert. : )

Those were freaking awesome. Much better than boring old eclipse pics that I've seen over and over. Very nice indeed!

Nice shots! I have to admit that while I use D-76 regularly, I had not heard of D-96 until I Googled it after your post. How do you feel it compares with D-76?
