Rumaging thru my pile of outdated film at the bottom of my freezer I've
unearthed my last roll of Kodak 2475 from among the rolls of Ektachrome 100,
Kodachrome 25 and Agfa CT18 (RIP). I'll give it a whirl and go for the
grainy portraits effect. Should go great with my uncoated Elmar 9cm. I only
have one shot so I think I'll rate it at the standard EI1000 & dunk it in
Diafine unless someone has a better idea.

I wonder what would happen if I threw the CT18 into E6. hmmmmmmmm

It is not our patriotic duty to send children to be butchered & slaughtered
& to butcher & slaughter others every time a general or a politician gets a
hardon for a war. Rather, it is our patriotic duty to demand the highest
burden of proof to justify war. It is also our patriotic duty to hold
treasonous, corporate whore, war criminals accountable for their actions.

See if you can find a package of Kodak DK-50 or the formula on line; I
believe that was Kodak's original suggested developer. I've also used
T-Max developer with good results. I'd definitely snoop this forum for
exposure/developer combinations before charging off ... unless you have
burning idea that cannot wait.

Let us know what happens.

Its still listed in J-24, the instructions for HC-110. Use dilution
B. Time is 9 minutes at 68F in a small tank (agitation 5 seconds every
30 seconds).
Kodak still has data sheets for some discontinued films on its web
site but I couldn't find 2475 Recording Film.
