Hello

I would like to hear your experiences with pushing Efke 100 to 400 in Fomadon R09/Rodinal. I have lots of this film, but Estonian winters are a bit dark for 100 speed film. I can get a hold of some d76 aswell, but I'd prefer to stick to R09. I'm not scared of grain (grain is scared of me). I could just buy tri-x instead, but i like having what I need at home. Some example images would be highly appriciated.

Hello

I want to warm this Thread a little up since I also want to push Efke R100 to 400 since it ist the only available b&w film in 127 and 100 ASA is not the ideal speed for a scale focus folder.
 
Rollei Retro 80S is also available in 127 roll film.

But it's iso 40-50 only (but very fine grain).

When you want to push Efke 100 use Beutler A+B in 1+1+8 and then you can go till iso 160-200 without to many issues.
In Rodinal you will loose 1/3F stop, so an E.I. of 80.

best regards,

Robert
