Janet, As far as I am concerned, that film wasn't worth much when it was
new. : (
Yes, It could have been used in Dektol under red safe light to make enlarged
negs. And since it was direct to negative, if you are going to try it make
sure you flip you neg in the carrier so that it is up side down. This old it
will probably have a bit of fog and always could have used a bit of help in
he contrast range. I'd try some D11 or D19 with it and see what kind of
range it will give you.

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.
