I shot 33 or so exposures on a roll that I though was Tri-X, but when I pulled it out, it was Plus-X. Damn ! Question is - what's the best way to recover ? It's not a full 2 stop push. I looked up the tech data sheet for Plus-X and a full two stop push (EI500) using XTOL (full strength) is 8 minutes at 68 C. (And I just happen to have made a fresh batch of XTOL yesterday.) I'm going to assume I shot the first 3 frames at 125, so I'll sacrifice the these, no problem. But I would like to salvage the rest of the roll the best I can. Suggestions ? Thanks - and if you could mail me direct, that would be best. I'm a digest subscriber (assuming someone answers), I won't get any posted answers until tomorrow, and I'd like to process this roll later today or this evening. Thanks William
