New Rollei Direct film

[boilerdoc2]

Just got some RSD film from the UK. Has anyone here had a chance to develop any of this? Did not come with development instructions. Grrr! I'll see if there is dev info somewhere on the web. I hear Rollei is out of business. Rumor?

Where did you buy it?

There was datasheet for SD somewhere on the net, with development suggestions.

Got it from Silverprint. They have a pdf for development, etc. Mentions the use of Rollei RHS developer. I'll have to see if they carry that. Was hoping for something a little more available, e.g. Rodinal.

I've bought some paper/films from Robert a few time's and he's always good as an information source.! And quite good in his prices for Holland, never to expensive.

Did you know though that Rollei 25 is Adox or Efke 25 only on a different carrier?

The Rollei Retro 100 is fomapan 100...

Fomapan? Robert has repeatedly stated on APUG that it is Agfa APX and thats what I heard everywhere else too. I'll probably drop an order with Robert pretty soon for Retro 100/120 and some Fomatone for lith printing.

Yeah, Retro 100 is definately APX100, and the Retro 400 is also a straight copy of the APX equivalent. Rollei (Adox) have been working closely with AGFA's old R&D devision in Belgium, which is still going strong.
