Lucky SHD 100 Developing formula
I've developed about 3 rolls of lucky shd and i'm still struggling to find the best development time and dilution to bring out more contrast. I'm using HC110 tried with 1:100 12 mins and 1:31 4 mins. Both turned out quite flat. Any suggestions?
heres a sample  |

Re: Lucky SHD 100 Developing formula
use less water ( not so diluted ) or extend your dev time or agitate more vigourously
or combination of all 3 thats the print right ? must see negative to give more constructive advice : ) |

Re: Lucky SHD 100 Developing formula
Exposure plays a key role too. U might want to look into this as well.
Burn another few rolls and try to write everything on a notebook or paper. Try other developer like D-76, Rodinal, Diafine and etc... I am using HC-110 too. Just order some Rodinal to try.. I seen some Flickr pictures on Lucky with Rodinal! Very nice combo. I haven't try it yet so i cant tell you much. Will update again.. Good luck and have fun.. ... |

Re: Lucky SHD 100 Developing formula
You might want to try putting a yellow filter on your lens when you shoot outdoors.
Alternatively, do some post processing, like adjusting the levels to recover the flatness. It could be due to the scanning part. |
