Here are my choices:
1. KC64, Kodak Elite 100, Gold 100, Ilford Delta 100 developed in ID11
2. E400, <no C41>, Delta400 developed in ID11
3. E400, <no C41>, TMax 3200
4. KC25 and some Velvia 50, (Gold 100), APX25 developed in ID11
5. KC64/E100, Gold 100, Delta100/APX25 developed in ID11
By accident I found a new choice for point 4, BW: I overexposed some Delta100
frames by one to two stops. Normal development in ID11. Nothing to be seen on
the contact. But enlargement showed ultra fine grained and sharp results.
