I haven't been very happy with Delta 3200 at 1600 by the mfr recommendations in full strength XTOL so I'll be givingg the 1:2 dilution a try. I'm curious about the temp of 75F. Normally all my chemistry is at or about 68 - esp in the winter. Any idea of times for that temp range? Thank you very much for posting these Adam Adam I got these off postings from an old hand called John Hicks. He posts regularly on photo.net and is the expert on film and it's develpment and printing. Personally I don't do any B+W, but compiled this as it seemed useful.
