Cross Processed Ep 1: XP2 Super In Xtol

What happens If you develop ‪@Ilfordphoto‬'s C41 XP2 Super film in Xtol B+W developer???
The XP2 Super photos in this video are straight out of Negative Lab Pro. I didn't edit or remove any dust so you can see exactly how XP2 Super looks developed in Xtol.

Different B&W developers give XP-2 a different appearance, but always super fine grain. And it emphasizes clouds relating to red sensitivity as though it has a yellow filter in place. Never had a B&W developer bomb in XP-2. Give it a bit of extra exposure by shooting at 320 or 250.

Thank you for sharing your experience with XP2 and other B&W developers as well as the tip to try adding a bit more exposure! I’ll give it a try! 😎👍🏻
The fine grain gets me every time - it really smoothes out when cross processing. I prefer the smoothness over the grit C41 tends to have.
I shot an identical roll to the one in this video that I developed in ECN2 - the images turned out really nice. Very smooth grain and great tonal range! One of these days I’ll get that video out!
