Museum shot at ISO 100 and developed in #H&W Control for 14 minutes

Kodak 2238 shot at ISO 100 and developed in H&W Control 1:15. Underexposed and overdeveloped this is the first experiment. H&W Control was invented by Harold Holden and Arnold Weichert and “perfected” to work with Agfa Copex Pan Rapid microfilm which was rebranded by H&W as a house film to work with Control developer. The purpose of the creation was to use the high contrast film for aerial reconnaissance who H&W contracted with. Here I’m trying to see how high we could reasonable run 2238 as a standard film for snapshots etc. H&W Control’s patent states it’s normal initial use should be 1:15 dilution at 68 degrees F for 12 minutes and then expand from there. This roll was shot at ISO 100 then split. I developed the first half of the roll at 68 degrees for 13 Minutes and the second half for 14 minutes. Standard agitation is constant for the first 2 minutes and then 6 seconds every minute thereafter. Stop/washed in tap water at 68 degrees and fixed in Ilford Hypam 1:4 for 3 minutes (H&W suggests 2 minutes). These were shot on the same 2 days, overcast with little direct sunlight. The shots are obviously underexposed. But some of them are pretty adequate with some post process. There is a tendency for the picture to go dark and appear as evening or even well lit night. However it is easy to brighten the scene. After some thought I think the goal will be to get clear ISO 80 pictures on 2238. I will next extend the developing time in order to clear up some of the blocked parts. I may try some sodium thiocyanate something around 1 g/Liter of stock so 0.06 gram in the working solution.
