The only time i use a stronger dilution is with Delta 3200 which i run 1:1. The only advantage to following this 100 ml per roll advice is if you are just as likely to put one roll in a tank as several and don't want to compute different times for the different situations. I've had no problem compensating for that. I tend to fill my one or two liter metal tanks with 4 or 8 rolls of 35mm film. And/or the 120 equivalent. When i very seldom run less rolls I'll just pull back a few minutes and all seems to be well. Pint tanks annoy me, I think a liter tank is optimal! Mark Rabiner to be continued....
