Hi! Enjoying getting started on my Pinsta Journey - but I have a few questions about the Ilford Harman Positive paper if anyone can help?
ISO 1-3 What affects the ISO? I've been aiming for 2 but curious as to why it has a range?
In the Pinsta instructions after developing you put the fixative but in the Harman instructions it advises using a stop or washing before fixing. How critical is this step?
The Harman instructions say you should do a final wash for 60 (!) mins in running water. Do they live by a stream? Why so long?
Not specific to Harman paper but how are people disposing of their spent developer fluid?
Another non-specific question, I've been getting an exposure time by taking a photo of the subject on my phone, feeding the values into the scantips calculator here: Equivalent Exposure Calculator, or Compare Any Two Camera Exposures (scantips.com) - can anyone suggest an app that will do the same thing?
Any advice much appreciated! Seb
