John Sexton, former assistant to A.A., has said he prefers 1:9, but goes as high as 1:15. And he says that even that dilute, you don't have to double up (two rolls in a full four reel tank) like other developers. It has real staying power. Don't remember the times, but he's on Compuserve. Might try to find him there in the Photoforum and get his dev. times. He's a really nice guy. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Seek the wisdom of the ages, but look at the world through the eyes of a child. Ron Wild
