hi,
need some guidance from u guys.
Isit normal to have exposure time as long as 40sec ?
i did a test strip and found dat when i print on magenta #2½ using a meopta condenser head @ F8 75mm the contrast i prefer is ard 40sec with a developing time of 90 headcounts roughly 90sec..
Are there any rule of thumb about exposure duration ? or it doesn't matter ?
paper used is ilford satin finish enlarged to 8x10 from a 6x6..
chemical is bromphen &hypam fixer..
Usually wad is the most common exposure duration used by most ?
anyone ?
