I am interested in your Shanghai experience.
I have a box of this but have yet to load it...

Hello all,
I'll follow up on Richard's suggestion and try it at 200, 320,
400, and 800. Thanks.
Still several hours of daylight so I'll shoot today and develop
tomorrow, along with a bunch of Shanghai 100 4x5 I'm trying out.
Cheers,
Bogdan

Ah, Thank you. I'll try the D-76 at 8 min
with an EI of 200, 400, 800,
and 1250... 4 sheets.
Cheers,
Bogdan
I wouldn't bother with the 1250 speed. That was for Royal-X
Pan, a completely different film. Royal Pan is an ISO-400 film
which given the age will probably work better at about EI-200 or
320. Certainly not at a higher than rated speed. Keep in mind that
the ISO system has no fudge factor so the box speed is the maximum
that will yield good shadow detail. Tone rendition will not suffer
from additional exposure but will from less.
I don't have curves for Royal Pan, from the description
(brilliant highlight separation, etc) it sounds like a long toe
film. That makes me wonder why they made it when Tri-X Pan
Professional (the sheet film) has a similar characteristic and
speed.
