To quote him"To sum up: try APX25 and XTOL and the best of Leica lenses is at your feet." for Delta 100 and XTOL 1:1, 68, invert for 30s, then 10s each minute. Start with recomended times from Kodak and adjust as desired. I like the Delta 100/XTOL, haven't tried XTOL with APX25. Mike Leitheiser "When the trout are lost, smash the state." Tom McGuane
