Pasha,
Your experiences with lith
film sound great!
What size is your film? I've
built a 20x24" pinhole camera that I use to create large paper negatives.
The negative stands as the one and only final image. While I will
occasionally try to contact print one into a positive, I generally much prefer
the negative.
I've used lith film with a lens
camera and got very nice results when processed in dektol. There is
appearance of a large spectrum of greys but, in effect, the film remains in the
extremes of blacks and whites when scrutinized under a high magnification
lens. It did provide prints with a stange beauty, somewhat in the
direction of etchings.
I'm puzzled by your results that the
image turned positive under standard development procedures with dektol.
Did you not go through the process of bleaching, re-exposure and re-development
normally required for positive film?
Regards,
Guy Glorieux
