I teach enlarging negatives the old fashioned way. My next class is with Julio
Galindo at his school in Mexico this June. The best film I've come across is
some that expired in 1968. It is labeled Graphics art film, and is a Kodak
product. You want base fog when making an interpositive. The film that is
that out of date, comes nicely prefogged. Janet the film you have is not one
you can use under safelights.

Hi Janet,
You might look it up on the Net. It could be a direct positive stock.
Frankly, any film that's 30 years old isn't worth the effort, time and
chemicals to experiment with.

} At a camera sale last weekend I bought a box of 4x5 Kodak Direct
Duplicating SO-015 film. Can I use this film to make enlarged negatives? Can
it be used under a safelight, although the box says "only in total darkness."
Can it be developed in Dektol? The film is dated Feb. 1975. It may be
useless, but it was cheap.
