Revisited Harbertonford village again to try out some Rollei Retro 80S, again developed in Caffenol CL (my now goto Developer with Semi-Stand technique).
Again, using my Fuji GX680 this time with a 125mm Fujinon lens at f22 again with a Yellow Filter.
What has astounded me is the amount of detail this film can hold. Whilst pictorially it is very good, when I started looking at the shadow detail at 100% I could see there was more than just some blocked up dark tones, once I had selected my shadow areas at 100% I then lifted the exposure by 2.5 stops to see what was actually there, what can I say, it really surprised me.
