Hi, I have a pacemaker speed graphic that I just shot my first roll of 120 film in. My question is about the processing times I should use for a ISO 400 film. On my Minolta 35mm camera there is an ISO setting that you change to match the film when you put the film in. There is no such setting on the Pacemaker and I am wondering if I will need to push/pull process the film to compensate for a standard ISO setting that is different than 400.
Hope this makes sense, can anyone help? |

Processing film has no relevance to what camera it was shot in. How you process the film depends on how you metered the light, the chemicals you plan to process the film in, and the type of tank.
If you metered at ISO 400 +/- 1/3 stop for a ISO 400 film then use the times listed for roll film in the type of tank you use from the film manufacturers data as it will be close enough to give good results. |

Oh duh, there's a setting on the light meter I was using. I had it set at 400 so I should be good. Thanks for the help on a dumb question. |

The only dumb question is the one that is not asked. |
