My first time using 120 film and 35ml on HP5 and Fuji Pro 4001SO
A 6x7 negative on HP5 Black and White. I had difficulty in loading the negative into the spindle which resulted in a tear. Once put in the spindle one should add 300 developer and 300 of water at 20C if possible. Because it is HP5 and the temperature was at 22 degrees one should develop it for 12 and a half minutes aggitating it every minute for 10 seconds to make the developer and the water mix together. As the developer sinks to the bottom when it is in the minute of rest.
Because it is 120 and it is much bigger than 35m one should do it for 2 to 3 minutes longer. the higher the ISO, the faster the developing time but the slower the ISO the more time is needed for the developing.
Once after the 12.5 minutes one should pour out the developer and rinse it out with water twice in order to wash out the developer completely, making sure that the water comes up to the top each time. Then one should put 600m of fix agitating this every 10 seconds of every minute. 6 minutes is always the same for 120 or 35m
After this, one puts it under running water for 20 minutes in order to wash out any impurities.
After this, one should put in the wetting agent which helps to remove the water and bubbles and streak marks.
Then one should put it in the drier for 20 minutes till it is dry and not open the door until it is dry as this would suck in dust and would stick to the film immediately
Here is an example of a C41 colour negative of Fuji Pro 400 which was processed at Dragons for 2.99
As it is a colour negative, the colours are less saturated as it is easier to produce a correct image which is properly exposed than on E6 which is not as tolerant and is more saturated.

This is an example of a cross process E6 film from 120 Fuji Velvia ISO 50. Due to the low ISO this film is extremely slow but produces very high quality images with no ISO grains to get in the way for the image is amazingly sharp and extremely saturated in its co lours.
For this image I put the camera on mirror lock due to the long exposure as the mirror plate would not judger the camera when the shutter is opened as the mirror plate is already up. Putting the camera on bulb setting and leaving it for 40 seconds on aperture 8 whilst firing the flash gun around the tree to create highlights and back lights for the tree
These photographs were shot on a Velvia ISO 50 on 35 ml and 120 film Fuji FP 100 C colour polaroid for RZ67
