Another nice video and all credit to you in continuing to make your videos given you have a full time job. Ortho can sometimes be notoriously difficult to develop and get the results you want. When I have developed it in the past I have either reduced development time by 20-25% or done a full stand development in either Rodinal(5mls of dev to 495mls of water) or 1ml of 510 pyro to 500mls of water for a full hour with 1 agitation at the 30 min mark.
Thanks for the kind words! I did notice it can be a tad tricky 😆 I do think the thin negatives is a combination of some underexposure and under development on my part. Thanks for the input, I'll try 510 pyro next time. It's been in and out of my shopping cart for a while now, and as I need to order some more 4x5 film soon I might just pick up some 510 as well.
Doesn't look like your meter was quite right. Plus, it's Ortho film so anything red is going to look very dark, almost black. Thanks for the video. I personally don't like ortho film. Red and orange come out almost black and blue sky goes completely white.
Thanks for the input. As always when it comes to thin negatives, it's one of two things under exposure or under developing. And under exposure is far more common of the two. So you might just be right. I do however suspect it's a little of both here, and that RPX is just a bit more forgiving than Foma Ortho. I did try quite a few new things, new developer, new film, new developing technique, new meter, using EV-values etc. As one should, it makes figuring out what went wrong so much easier 😆 About the Ortho-film, you summed it up perfectly. It's certainly a different look, I can se myself shooting it from time to time. But it won't be my default :) Thanks for the support, and have a great day!

You're right. Photography is fun. Loving your channel.
