I finally got to run a roll through my Canon IID2 rangefinder and found the film advance very crunchy and resistant. I'm also not thrilled about these plastic canisters.

Kodak is best but twice the price. This stuff is about ASA 200, not 400, it also needs more than the indicated development time. Trial and error will tell how much to over expose and develop. You can get good results

Love the grainy, dreamy quality of this stock. I picked it up since so many people compared it to the old school Kodak Tri-X. Seems to halate more (could just be my lens), but was definitely very pleasing. If you're looking for pristine and grain free then move on. If you like some character, contrast, grain, and maybe some dreaminess (depending on your lens) then have at it.

A nicely balanced film, with a wide exposure lattitude when your meter fails. Develops nicely in D76

This high-quality film is designed for versatility and compatibility with all major processing systems, making it an ideal choice for both amateur and professional photographers seeking rich, detailed images.
The Arista EDU Ultra 400 film is optimized for normal contrast negatives, with recommended developing times standardized at 68 Degree F (20 Degree C). However, developing times may vary depending on your environment and equipment. For optimal results, consider the following developer options:

- Arista Premium Powder: Develop at stock dilution for 7 1/2 minutes or at 1:1 dilution for 8 1/2 minutes.
- Arista Liquid Film Developer: Apply as a working solution for 8 minutes.
- Arista Premium Liquid Developer: Dilute at 1:9 for an 8-minute development.
- Marathon Film Developer: Use at 1:9 dilution for 6 1/2 minutes.
- Ilford ID-11, Kodak D-76: Stock dilution requires 7-8 minutes, while 1:1 dilution needs 12-13 minutes.
- Kodak XTOL: Straight dilution for 7 minutes.

- Kodak HC 110: Use at 1:31 dilution for 6 1/2 minutes.
- Agfa Rodinal: Dilute at 1:25 for 5 1/2 minutes.
For best results, begin with continuous agitation for the first 30 seconds of development, followed by 5 to 7 inversion cycles for 5 seconds every 30 seconds. If using a rotary processor with continuous agitation, reduce developing times by 15%. Adjust development times as needed to achieve your desired contrast, especially if your current system is yielding satisfactory results.
