Here's what I did: I exposed the film at ASA 400, which I know is quite high since the recommended ASA is 50. The reason why I did that is because by accident, I did it before and it yielded great results. So I wanted to stick with what had worked before. The weather outside wasn't the best, I had decided to do it anyway since I had traveled aways and figured it still may work. If the negs were overexposed or overdeveloped, wouldn't there be *something* on the film, some image, maybe really dense?(posted 8826 days ago)In terms of camera light leaks, I'm relatively certain that my camera has none. I've had it for two years and I havent had any trouble before. However, what you said about the felt light trap --is that what you called it?--on the cannister isn't light tight for infrared is interesting, but then again, you said that the middle of my roll wouldn't be as affected.
I developed it for 6 mins at 70 degrees with HC 110 dil B....again, what has worked before. As far as the actual negs go, they have no markings (Kodak, neg numbers, etc) whatsoever on them and there isn't a trace of an image anywhere. I at first thought of severely dense negs too, because that has happened before, but I think its safe to assume that they are fogged. Although your comments are helpful I am still stumped. Could this have been bad film maybe?
Thanks again, Erin
