I haven't used the R3 but I have used the Rollei 25. It
probably WILL be a
problem for a lab in that these appear to be speciality
films that weren't
forumated to use D76, etc. I just ordered the Rollei slow
film developer. I
think that you should probably develop the stuff yourself.

Hello all - and great showing at the flickr gallery by the
way!
I just read the description for Rollei R3 film, and it
sounds very
interesting.
I'm not processing my own film yet, and I'm wondering if
this film
would be trouble with service labs because it's not a
fixed ASA film.
Should I wait until after I've started processing my film
to try it,
or should I ask Santa for a roll or two?
Also I read this in its specs: " Reversal processing for
B/W slides
is also possible without any problem; The top layer of the
material
is a supercoat so that the film will easily withstand the
bleach
solutions used in some processes"
Does this mean I can shoot a roll of this and have someone
process it
to make slides? Who would do that, and how?
Thanks,
Elias
I've just finished processing a roll of 120 100T-Max in
Ilford Perceptol. Its still hanging drying. I may try
printing a few images tonight if my back feels OK. The
negatives look pretty good. They were shot with my 2.8E.
Some with strobe and some today in bright sunlight. All were
shot at EI-50. The daylight shots were exposed using the
built in meter and all look reasonably correctly exposed.
The strobe unit has an automatic exposure device on it.
I've tried this combination for 35mm where it gives me
both very fine grain and smoother tone rendition but never
with the larger negatives. I am very curious as to what I
got and will report here when I have anything to report.
