Michael --
If you can expose Delta 100 (in D-76+1) at EV 3.0 and find the PSP to be 2.4 your system is "calibrated" satisfactorily for ISO 100. Any other film/dev combination whose "ISO triangle" falls on 2.4 when exposed at EV 3.0, is therefore also a 100-speed film—regardless of the manufacturer's ISO rating.
I'm not looking at your numbers as I write this, but let's suppose you test the Aero PlusX at EV 3.0 (in other words assuming that it's a 100-speed material) and the ISO triangle of this test family indicates a speed point of 1.8 instead of 2.4. In other words, it misses your PSP (2.4) by 0.6, or two stops. This doesn't change your PSP; you've established that as a standard for comparison. What it does show is that your test film/dev combination deserves an EFS (Effective Film Speed) of two stops less than 100, or 25.
Assign it that "ISO" rating and shoot some test subjects; I think you'll find that you get good negatives. |
