T Max is a developer for squeezing out extra speed out of films and at the
expense of tonality.
It somehow turns T Max P3200 film into a real 3200 film.
At the expense of tonality and everything else.
The worst developer I've ever used and HC-110 was a close second in worst ness.
You're better off in old fashioned D76, Rodinal or..Best but not least, Xtol.
