Carlos, Dave,
Great photos.
From Carlos' point of view, or any photographer, to loose images for whatever
reason is a major disappointment.

It-s a a well done series Dave, great album!. I had never used the Ilford 3200
(or any 3200 film),and I bought two rolls as a curiosity matter. I prefer to
expose and to process films for their nominal speed, but I see you can get
good results pushing them according the film type and developer you use; anyway
I never felt comfortable with pushing processes.
My bag has elastic bands where you insert the arms, these bands became weak
some time ago and I feared a light leak, it did not happen with slower films
but the light leak appeared for this 3200 film. I'll use the bag in dimmer
ambient whilst I solve the problem; however the subjects for this roll have
nothing special, it was a test roll and it's useful for the purpose because you
can distinguish the real original exposure regarding the band from the light
leak in the pictures.
Carlos.

Sorry to hear about your potential loss of photos, Carlos! I guess there's no
other way to learn of a light leak but to lose some frames, but it's a shame,
anyway. I've worried about the lasting integrity of my own dark bag. Maybe I
should learn from your experience and just replace it now.
I've used Delta 3200 quite a bit, and I like the film, but it is expensive.
Recently, though, I've had consistent success pushing Delta 400 to 3200. It
costs less, and I've thought of the results as comparable to the Delta 3200.

Subject: [rollei_list] Ilford Delta 3200 Pro -2,8F Planar
Last week-end I used an Ilford Delta 3200 Pro 120 B&W film with the 2,8F
Planar. I had a problem loading it into the tank due to a light leak through
the dark bag handling, a light band affected the film center along the roll
except for two frames; the film sensitivity is almost incredible and I will be
more careful for the next time; anyway I did not lose too much, results are
useful to test exposure and film developing.
Ilford Delta 3200 is an ISO 800 film forced to 3200 during film developing, I
think it'svery interesting for extreme low lighting situations or if you want
DOF under poor light and/or if you want or you need to avoid tripod use. ISO
50,,100, and 400 panchromatic films are better options for regular lighting
situations of course. I took a portrait by night with only two candles
illuminating the subject face, the candles very close to the face, a few
centimeters of distance variation mean a significant change for the exposure;
it was 1/60 sec at f 2,8 and results were right, owevert the portraits with
candles look better with color film because B&W does not capture the candles
light warmth and lighting looks too gloomy, dismal, and cold, but it's amazing
you take a portrait with film camera hand-held under so poor light. I don't
like this portrait for my Flickr gallery, but I'll put it in one of my blogs as
a technical issue in the future.
This photograph was taken last Sunday during a time when the intense rain
decreased its intensity; the natural light was very poor, but I could take it
camera hand´held with wide DOF thanks to the 3200 film, I used the Romek PQ7 at
20ºC during 20' for the film developing:
