In looking for N- times, using _half_ the intermittent-agitation time for HP5+ in D-76H 1:3 I was still getting EI 400, defined as .10 DU or slightly higher for a Zone I exposure. Not what I expected, but there it is. The only oddity was Delta 100 in D-76H 1:3; for a matched curve shape for N it dropped to EI 80. D-76H 1:1 gave EI 100. To make test strips I use a Contax G2, which has rather consistent shutter speeds, exposing the film with a Wallace Expo-Disc, and the meter's calibrated to Sunny f16. Your mileage may vary. <g> On that note, using the Expo-Disc and Sunny f16, both my M6 bodies need +2/3 stop EI compensation. I wonder if they're all set up that way. John Hicks jbh@magicnet.net
