Kodak wqould get good results, the consumer testers woulfd get lousy repeatability... Finally Kodak figured out consistent agitation and temp were the keys. JOBO and John Sexton were brought in to figure out the right mix and methodoilogy to make Tmax films a success. Sexton figured out and claims to have written the data sheet on developing TMax film. It requires a 5 minute presoak in a JOBO to get things right.. The message her is that presoak is required in certain processes.... the magic word processes includes a specific film, developer, and methodology.
