Response to A question regarding film , developer and development

from Melvin (bramley@nanaimo.ark.com)
Ilford!Kodak!D76,Xtol! All obsolete!! I am using Newopan12. Whilst it is only rated at ISO 12 it can be pushed to ISO 6400 with no problem. The film is hard to come by as it is made in Antartica by virgin maidens during the summer solstise just once per year. I have found a good custom lab to push the film to ISO 6400 It is a one hour lab located in Tibet half way up Mount Everest.Home processing is said to be difficult as the film is processed at 130 deg for 3.5 hrs (plus or minus .00003 secs) I am waiting for information on using the film with the Zone system which I will post as soon as it comes available.
