At first I too, had development problems. I didn't know what it was since I don't do my own development, but told the lab what and how to do it. The result was a consistent streaking with the Tech Pan. I finally got the tech sheet from Kodak and with it sat on the person doing the developing. She went straight by the 'book' (sheet) for loading and agitation and thereafter I had no problems. It is GREAT!!! film. And so versatile. I keep it loaded in 2 of my backs, one for technidol and one for D-76. When I take the Leica, I go to the sight, see what and how I want to shoot and load the Tech Pan accordingly. Then I load a roll in the 35mm back of the ETRS for the other development. To all who haven't tried it or tried it with similar problems, I suggest to try it again. In fact the Leica look is more definitive with this film than any other film I've used. Brian Levy, J.D. Toronto, Ont. dlevy@worldy.com
