I have a rather bizarre little project that may or may not come off. As part of this I need to generate very high contrast, almost lithographic, negatives on sheet film.
(my initial tests will be with images printed onto transparency film with a laser printer to make a fake 'negative')
What is the best way to take and process FP4 (because I have some of that) 4x5 (portrait orientation ) sheet film to get high contrast?
I'm presuming underexpose a couple of stops and push the processing like crazy (extend the development time) to get the deep negatives. Any suggestions for a developer to use?
