Subject: [Leica] XTOL and Ilford

Hi all,

After seeing the many praises of XTOL here on LUG, I went and bought
some yesterday. I intend to use it with Ilford Delta Pro 100. My
question is, are the developing times given on the package generally
reliable? I.e. 8 min. at 20 degrees for this particular film. And what
kind of agitation works best with XTOL? I am used to the Ilford standard
of 10 sec. every minute. Finally, what is the response to lower/higher
temperatures? I am used to modifying the time by 7% per degree deviation
from 20C.

I would appreciate any experiences.

Nathan
