Spidersnaps: Bergger time
Feb. 17th, 2024 09:04 pmTime for another non-regular B&W film brand, and this time it's Bergger Pancro 400 from France :-) Purchased alongside the Agfa and Rollei, it was the most expensive of the films, at THB333 (about USD 9) According to their site, it's made with two different kinds of salt for wide exposure latitude... However, my shots do not seem to have borne the exposure latitude claims out, as between losing a few frames at the start after the camera (Kodak M35) dropped out of my pocket, causing the back to open (only shot one frame at that point, "thankfully"), snapping (at least) one shot with the aperture switch left in the middle (!) and this film not particularly doing great in the shade, even with the larger aperture in flash mode (though without actually using flash; not sure it would have helped) I got a grand total of 27 scans (!)
(ETA: When I got the film back from the lab, they returned it as a canister like half-frames because there were so many dark frames they were unsure of where to cut)
