I've used the orth sheet film to make continuous tone negatives from
color transparencies. This makes it a one step process although I'm sure
that the film being ortho changes the tone relationships somewhat. I
develop in Rodinol 1:9 for 3 minutes with continuous agitation in a
tray. Be careful with the safelights in the darkroom. This film is much
faster than lith film and will easily fog if exposed to anything but
deep red safe lights. I had another problem with this film in that every
other sheet was fog right out of the box. Photo Warehouse did replace it
after some delay. They said that they did not have any in stock at that
time.
