And I've used it for 3200 TMAx film with good results. Plan on a film speed of about 1,000. Any higher will reduce the shadow detail (which is what exposure controls, on the most part). However, with wonderful results I've processed P3200 TMax film in Tetenal Emofin, a two bath developer. Problem is to find where to buy it. I got mine from Germany. It comes in powder form. Developing agents are in the first solution and activator is in the second solution, etc... Ed
