Joe mailed me a roll of Ultrafine Xtreme 400 and 100 the other day. I stuck it in the Nikon N2020 with an AF 50 1.8. Yeah i bought the 2020 for $7.90, basically for shipping last week. Guy was gonna throw it away because the shutter was messed up on it. I paid shipping and within half an hour i got that beast working right. So anyways, I stuck the 400 in there first. I developed this roll with TMX developer, 20C 5.45min Rotary. It came out really really flat (Physically, not tonally), the edge of the film does say Ultrafine Extreme 400iso on it, but the flatness really reminds me of ILFORD. I know I didn’t post the stuff for the 100ISO roll yet, but i can tell you right now I like the 400 better than 100. Its not really that thin, and with proper anti-halation layer unlike the lucky SHD. I think the whole roll looks pretty good, see for yourself.
Edit: Sept 2011, ahem, the Ultrafine Xtreme 400 in 120 looks just like Ilford HP5 down to the backing paper.
I can’t remember where this was taken at, probably at dinner after going to the indoor water park.
At the Grand Rapids Griffins game, the beer lady.
This will be the goaly of the Rochester Americans.
If they don’t fight, it ain’t no hockey.
We’re sitting at the D ZONE with WGRD 97.9 . Dude not far away from me decided to stand up on the seat and dance when they played Don’t Stop Believing.
Change of scenery, at Muskegon next to the SS236 USS Silversides. This will be the Raytheon Radar unit in the USS DRUM.
More inside USS DRUM
Headed over to West Michigan Dock and Market Corp. Nice building there.
Outside the dock office, security guy came out asked me when I was doing. I told him I like the way everything look around there, so vintage. And he started to tell me a little info and history about the dock. They try to keep everything original as possible. Friendly guy it was!
Another view on the dock
Ice next to the LST 393 landing boat in Muskegon Bay
I like that view, not sure about the pole though.
Hopped over to downtown Muskgeon, haven’t been in those streets in 10 years even though i go around it all the time. Who knew Muskegon actually had a very nice part. I am very surprised.
Laying on the street again, go me.
Nice contrasty turn-out. That extra layer makes all the difference. I dont know about that electric pole either…kind of distracting. Love that shot of the theater…Man, makes me wish i could get out and find some stuff around here to shoot! The sun is out today…we’ll see.

When I googled this film this was the 5th result. not bad.
Too bad they only look at the “technical stuff and review” instead of my other stuff.
Well thats what brings them in, and maybe they stick around to look at the rest. My biggest views are on the Yashica Autofocus S and Tmax 100 post. lol.
Like they need to see test rolls of TMX!
