Reciprocity failure

No official data available. The manufacturer hasn't published reciprocity specifications for this film.

For long exposures, try starting with a 1.3 exponent (t' = t1.3) as a baseline and bracket your shots. This is a reasonable middle ground that works for many films.

Kodak F-4001 (Apr 2019) lists no adjustment from 1/10,000 s to 1 s and publishes nothing for longer exposures, so none are given here. Bracket long exposures.
