I have a number of 5" x 4" pinholes, but I also have a 35mm lens cap. So, when I next order any film I'll get a roll or three of XP2 to try out, especially since I've only ever tried it the once, getting it d+p-ed at Snappy Snaps, before taking the negatives into the darkroom. And a good set of prints they made too! And yes, the grain of XP2 is almost impossible to find and focus on. Terry S |

Latest test, XP2 semi stand in Caffenol C-L. 65mins at 20c with 3 agitations at 2,4,8,16 & 32mins. It shared a tank with a very expired(1991) roll of Orwo NP27 (last picture)

Well, I have to say, whoever suggested shooting XP2 at 100 is a genius.
#Ilford #xp2 shot at 100 & developed at 20° in stock #ID_11 as per massive dev. I reduced the time by 20% + 20% to allow for pulling then added 40% because this is film 5 in this solution. I am going to try it at 400 again, just as a comparison but this could well be my new default for shooting xp2 Sent from my SM-A226B using Tapatalk |

Seriously, some really nice tonality in those images. Nice rich midtones. Well done indeed. This is a combo I will have to try it seems. I have never used XP2 due to the cost of sending it out for C41. I really had no idea you could get such nice results with normal developers.
