Ferrania P30

Hey to all Filmuser, developer and printer or scanner or both

I bought some 120 Film Ferrania P30 - films, some questions before i start shooting with my Viktor 500cm (dont use the word Hassi :)

1. Has anyone experiences with that film, experiences in making fotos, developing?
2. You expose with ISO 80 or less?
3. Which developer do you use, you prefer?
4. Any experiences with long time exposures? Reciprocity failure?

I searched Ferrania, but found nothing.
Do I search wrong or is this newcomer never been used?

Thanks in advance, greetings from South Germany
 
First of all, take note that it is a film with a high silver content. Originally made for Cinema. (projection)
This means that the tonal range easily exceeds the range of the scanner that you might use to scan the negatives.
You can compensate this by pulling and compensating that with the develop time.
Stand develop in HC-110 1+119 worked rather nicely for me:
But there are plenty of oher examples on the internet.
