As I recall, Jobo advised me that their research had indicated that when using a rotary processor one could use one's normal times if one used a 5 minute water presoak ( at your normal temp). I use distilled water for the presoak (doesn't take much in the Jobo) and it works for me with plusx trix agfa100 and tmax. I also get some water color in the presoak (most with agfa) but have not noticed discernable difference in end negatives. Except of course they are better when exposed with a leica or rollei. - -Neal
