READ CAREFULLY BEFORE BUYING THIS
UNIQUE FILM
This is a very strange, rare film I recently came across. It is a
B&W Aerographic Negative film made by the Lucky Film Company in
China. Made for the Chinese military to photograph from high-altitude
airplanes. It now gives a very distressed and vintage look with normal
B&W developers.
This film was initially purchased from a Chinese Military Surplus sale
and says "develop before 2010."
After extensive testing, I have determined that there is some
sort of emulsion damage resulting in cloudy areas, most noticeable in
the shadow areas. They resemble some kind of water spots so perhaps the
film was stored deep in a Mongolian bunker somewhere and was exposed to
moisture for prolonged periods before it was finally decommissioned and
sold off ???
(Major speculative artistic license taken here ;-)
I tried processing this film in several different
developers including Caffenol, Rodinal, and HC-110. I got images from
each attempt but the HC-110 was definitely the better result. (see
examples)
The undeveloped film base does have a very green/cyan cast, but that
goes clear after normal B&W developing. Some other films have this
type of color cast on the non-emulsion side... some type of special
anti-halation or something??
This film was originally rated at ISO 200 but I have had much better
results shooting it at ISO 100.
I had the unique opportunity to acquire a small amount of this film so
I have made a limited number of rolls available
for purchase. Don't
wait untill it's sold out!
I'm
keeping these rolls inexpensive by
re-using old
film cassettes and sticking on an artsy label I've made just so you
know what's inside. Using a bulk loader I made rolls of approximately
20 exposures each, sometimes a bit more or less and as with most bulk
loaded film the very last picture of each roll will not be exposed as
that is where it is taped. This is NOT a stock product from Lucky and
I
am not proporting to represent that fine company in any manner. This
film has no DX code so you will need a camera than can be set to ISO
100 or use manual exposure.
