Rollei Retro 400 and 100 - dev times?

[CJP6008]

Does anyone have any dev times for these (reasonably) newly released films? And indeed the ISO 25 film they have released. I have only been able to find information for the R3 film. I have heard good thing about them though.

As the films are made by or at least designed by MACO (so I gather) one would suspect that they are a bit like some of their films. I just do not want to commit a test roll to the dev tank without a scooby do as to how long it should be in there for!

BTW - there is stuf on various other forum sites wondering if these films are Agfa APX type films - given the MACO connection I suspect not.

Any light that anyone could shed on my darkness would be much appreciated.

Check the massive dev chart under MACO films, there seem to be an orthochromatic and a panchromatic film there rated at 25 ISO, one of those is probably the rollei film.

I would strongly suspect these films to be the old MACO UP100 and 400. Coincidentally they also do an ISO 25 film, hmmm.
Try this page for MACO data in pdf form.

PS, the prices may be lower without the Rollei branding.
