Hello, All

Here are the results of my Quest about TechPan & developers:

1-) TechPan is extra sensitive to red; skin & lips come out pale.
Use of a Cyan filter is indicated

2-) The film should be rated from 12 to 50 ISO, depending on the 
developer.

3-) Technidol is the first developer choice, even being very 
expensive; second best choice is HC-110 dilution F; third is Rodinal 
1+200.

4-) TD-3, Modified POTA and many experimental formulas (some for 
subminiature cameras) are used with variable success.

5-) In any case, agitation is very important. Agitate *GENTLY* three 
seconds every thirty is the usual advice.

6-) Experiment! If you can afford it...
