Looking at your video and your presentation has been very rewarding. I had a darkroom 1980 for about 3 years. I was transferred from Germany to Lawton, OK. I got my training from two German photographers who ran the local photo lab on the base. I started with 35mm and graduated to medium format. I processed all of my film, B/W, and slide. I am working on getting members of our local photo club to embrace some of the old-school photography processes, just to slow down and be more intentional in their photography work. I have used a number of the developers you show on your lab site. But I have never used the "Stand" process. This will be a new venture for me, but I am going to try this as I share my photography experience with my club. Thank you again.

I was amazed at the extent of dilution - yet excellent evenness and a beautiful rich pyro stain. Does the shape of the tank make a huge difference as most people have Jobo tanks or Paterson? It would be great if you have a special technique for scanning pyro negatives to explain your workflow.

Delta films are usually high in restrainers which would stop development with such weak dilution (this isn't just 510 Pyro specific) - you would need to use 1:100 and agitate every 10 minutes or more often

You probably figured this out already, but you can use your Reveni Spot Meter in Zone Mode. Meter your zone 3 area, select zone 3 placement in the meter, and it will provide the proper exposure. An added benefit is that you can hold down the Menu/Compare button, scan the scene, and the meter will tell you where other areas fall on the zone scale.

@alanhuntley55 2 жыл бұрын

@@martinhensonphotography I haven't used Nick's PMM mode...seems overly complicated to me. But, based on what I've read in the manual it looks like his text descriptors follow Ansel's zone system of 0 - 10. For example, what Nick describes as "Very Light" would equate to zone 8; "Medium Dark" would be zone 3. That said, it gets a little more complicated because you can set the high/low range limits in the config menu. For example, if in the config menu you set the high value to +3, then "Textureless White" would be 3EV above middle grey. Conversely, if you set low value to -2, then "Textureless Black" would be 2EV below middle gray. Essentially, I believe these settings in the config menu enable you to set the dynamic range of the film being used. I hope I haven't just confused you more.

@@alanhuntley55Thanks Alan, I get it, seems overly complicated to me as well, I can do all the above with just the simple spot metering mode, one thing that I did not like is the fact they include a mode on the meter and then you have to download and buy Nick Carvers metering Pdfs which seems a little odd when buying a product that should have detailed instructions especially for the least advance users how to use it correctly.

@@martinhensonphotography Yeah, the idea of having to buy Nick's metering course to fully understand PMM mode bothered me, too. And, the course is more expensive than the whole dang meter!

I just tried 510 pyro stand development at 1:500 exactly like you, for 1 hr . I tried 4x5 FP4 and HP5, both shot at respective box speed, same indoors control scene. I shot twice with each film to develop one pair with DD-X (following Ilford times). I scanned the 4 sheets together and I found that 1) contrast was lower with pyro in all cases 2) DD-X has better tonality in the middle tones IMO and 3) both films with Pyro 510 were about 0.5 to 2/3 stop darker across the board. I wasn’t expecting that, looks like stand development loses speed. Next I’ll try semi-stand and regular development with Jobo.

We used to use it in food photography when, for instance, a set-up had a bowl of rice in it. Have you ever photographed food set-ups with cooked rice? Thank you for your time and knowledge.

Hi, Martin. I have been using 510 pyro on FP4+ sheet film in a Stearman Press tank in a semi stand technique with 2.5 mls of 510 to 500 mls of water and found that I am getting a deposit on the non emulsion side of the negative in bands that coincide with the vertical of the frame of the negative holder. I am using a newer version of the frame than the one on your video. It is best described as what you see left over from applying sellotape to glass and then peeling off the sellotape. It is not happening with development in Ilford DD-X. You haven't mentioned it so sounds as though it is not something you have noticed. Just thought I would mention it and wonder if anyone else has noticed such a problem.

Hi Martin. I've been using various Pyro developers for a couple of years now and I am liking what I get. But I have come to believe that promotion of "stand development" techniques can be misleading to those who don't yet understand the limitations and risks of this option. If not done well, the results can be horrible - bromide drift alone can ruin negatives, especially in roll film formats. If you do not perform at least one agitation in the middle of the time, you are asking for trouble. Also, I think it would be of immense value if, when doing a demonstration like this, that you include the results of a control image (processed normally in 510, as recommended, with normal agitation) for comparison. The benefits of "Stand" development in an instance like this may prove to be very subtle and for many photographers, not worth the risks.
